Real Science and Brainpower Outsourcing

Comment now » // July 13th, 2007

Yesterday I posted information about Galaxy Zoo and today the blog Read/Write Web has posted about it as well — and they’ve include links to other similar “brain outsourcing” projects.

All of these provide opportunities for homeschoolers to become involved in real-world projects — and the process that is being used (virtual outsourcing) will give kids and teenagers some experience with skills that they may end up using in the workforce later on.

Have you done anything similar to this with your homeschool student(s)? If so, share your thoughts and ideas with us by posting a comment on this post!
