Learning Center

Learning Center-Big Beef Creek

A collaborative resource for educators and students

The Learning Center was an early PRISM effort directed at providing a collaborative resource for educators and students interested in earth science education and exploration. Using 3-D modeling technology, on-line databases, modular visualization software and Java-based dynamic Web pages, the Learning Center was designed to provide real-time visualizations of physical and ecological phenomena, interactive 4-D worlds as well as collaborative learning tools for educators, students, and the public.

The Learning Center used an array of sophisticated, on-line delivery systems that have evolved into the current collaborative framework used for the current PRISM website.
