Electronic BeeSpace is an Internet-based video curriculum resulting from BeeSpace, an NSF-funded exploration of the genetic basis of the complex honey bee social behaviors. This customizable curriculum emphasizes species biology, cutting edge molecular biology techniques, experimental design, data collection, data analysis, and extrapolation of findings to broader scientific generalizations. It includes eight hours of video-based materials and downloadable background documents drawn from the Summer, 2008 Experiencing BeeSpace workshop. A planning guide, accessible from the home page, provides recommendations for planning presentation to different audiences (e.g. middle school science, high school science biology, high school social science, 4-H, extension, and community nature study/environmental awareness groups).
