Bioscience Education Canada once again is offering a free lecture and workshop series for high school students. Teachers are asked to register their classes for 2 lectures and 1 workshop. Registration must be made to Bioscience Education Canada at info@bioscienceeducation.ca or by phone at 416-640-0206.

In addition to lectures and “wet lab” workshops delivered by the Faculty of Seneca College there are computer workshops subject to restrictions.

• On April 26th, the two bioinformatics workshops, “Surfing the Human Genome”, is restricted to Grade 12 students because the content is very curriculum specific.
• On April 25th, the computer workshops titled “Explore the Science through Game Based Learning “ delivered by Spongelab are an educational video game competition. The capacity for each of the 4 sessions is 40 students. Each school is restricted to the participation of 10 of its students but students are competing as individuals.

After teachers have registered their classes for the lectures and workshops they can register up to 10 students for the competition for FREE before the event at www.spongelab.com but only after the school has been registered for the lectures and workshops.
