Science Program links students

Abstract:
A group of 50 students from Fiji and Chicago are earmarked to participate in a science program to be launched next year, via a digital medium, to promote coral reef environment.

The project, led by Chicago-based Field Museum scientists, will link students from Chicago's Austin neighbourhood andstudents in Fiji to experience coral reef environments in the Pacific Ocean, engage in the scientific process and participate in real world conservation.

The topics covered include physics, earth science, medicine, nanotechnology, electronics, space, biology, chemistry, computer sciences, engineering, mathematics and other sciences and technologies.
