Science Learning Resources develops original technology and content to bring real world science labs to the virtual world of the internet. Instruments are rendered in 3D images and can be manipulated using normal control surfaces with a mouse or other tactical input devices; digital content can be organized to create lesson plans, learning regimes, laboratory experimentation and results evaluation projects. Science Learning Resources’ first product is the Explorer™ Microscope teaching System offered through on-line science learning outlets and direct from SLR. Perfectly reproduced slides are viewed under the virtual microscope. Teachers are offered multimedia authoring tools to supplement the learning of each slide. Science Learning Resources is based near the Research Triangle Park in North Carolina. Originally created at the UNC-Chapel Hill under grants from NIH, the Explorer system is the de facto choice for community college systems. Management Team
