I just got this update from a friend (via LinkedIn):
A new NSF-funded site has just launched. According to the release:
"[The site is] dedicated to cataloging best practices in media-based science education and getting the word out about--and discussing--innovative new media-based science education programs and concepts (where media includes both traditional and new media). The site is located at:
http://www.mediasciencelearning.com/
To celebrate its launch (and help get its discussion areas quickly up to critical mass), the grantees (at their own expense, not NSF's) are giving away Zingerman's gift certificates to the best (and most prolific) contributors to the site's case discussions, located at:
http://www.mediasciencelearning.com/CaseStudies
Related to this, if you know of any great media-based science education programs that ought to be highlighted by this site (or you run one yourself and are looking for feedback, publicity, collaborators, or funders), you can submit it at:
http://www.mediasciencelearning.com/addacase/
