urgently need to talk to one of your science teachers. In particular, I need help to define the objectives for our two-year Comenius project concerning biodiversity in water. This comparative study will be carried out in English.

1) As you know, it will involve 17-year-old students belonging to three different European schools.
2) Do you know anything about cooperative learning or bioinformatics?
Can you suggest a website where I could look for help?

Here are some articles about cooperative learning:

and

and

There are probably fewer useful articles in here, but check them out anyway:
