Subject: Learning Studio - week of Jan 21

This week I have a long list of new items added to the Exploratorium's
Learning Studio Catalog. This week mostly in paper rather than electronic.

Magazine article:
Recommended by Learning Studio staff member Richard Brooks:

GIlles,
        For your next Studio highlights missive: a cool article in the
latest issue of Discover [Feb, v. 22, #2], titled "Black and White," that
discusses the biology of skin color (as opposed to the conjecture on, and
pseudobiology of, skin color). Among other things discussed in the
article: folate, and UV radiation mapping.
'umbly,
El Troll
