REVIEW:
Access Excellence was created by Genentech employees and science teachers. The purpose of the site is to connect science teachers so they can share ideas, strategies, and activities. Users will find areas for online discussions, updates and news, activities, and online projects. This is a great resource for high school biology and other science teachers. The site includes links to other science discipline and mathematics resources.
