SitC production details Targeting a first year undergraduate audience Graduate students and postdocs do the writing in return for a byline on the website Teams of students have started annotating as a group exercise Willing to try any other ideas to make this a more valuable resource

Shows the process of science We are not interested if students learn a piece of science content with SitC We want them to see how scientists communicate Many unanswered questions science articles are possible to read Why primary literature?

Starting to partner

Write a 100 word paragraph on what you think this research is trying to solve.

Identify 5 words that you don’t know and write a definition.

I am always looking for people to work with!
