Draft

  • BGuILE = (Biology Guided Inquiry Learning Environment)
  • “BGuILE learning environments bring scientific inquiry into middle school science and high school biology classrooms. The environments consist of computer-based scenarios and associated classroom activities in which students conduct authentic scientific investigations” (Project Goals, retrieved 16:27, 17 July 2006 (MEST))

Currently, BGuILE consists of four computer-based scenarios.
