CREATURE SPHERE

Aimed at children 8-12, Creature Sphere is an experimental educational Web site which enables children to learn about ecology by creating their own plant and animal life and placing their creations in a simulated world. The children can see how their creatures interact with other creatures and the environment itself. As the creatures thrive or decline, the computer points out the basic ecological principles at work and allows the children to guide the evolution of their creatures to respond to changes in the environment and ecosystem. A unique feature of Creature Sphere is that its simulated world is open to the participation of thousands of children, potentially from every corner of the planet, via the Web.
