Researchers map, measure brain’s neural connections – 3
Narrator: This is NIH Health Matters. I’m Joe Balintfy. Scientists, teachers, students and parents are being asked to send their best procedures for cool experiments that will work in classrooms. Dr. Carla Easter, a science education specialist at NIH explains, the NIH K-12 LAB Challenge will collect and judge experiments for kindergarten through 12th-grade classrooms.
Easter: Once the activities have been judged and deemed the best ones, we will then provide the winners with an electronic badge—which they can put on their website or their Facebook page.
Narrator: The winning procedures will be announced March 1, 2012 and made available to everyone for free. For details visit the website science.education.nih.gov. Health Matters is produced by the National Institutes of Health, part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
