In Science Snoops, students in grades 7 to 10 engage in inquiries of life science phenomena. This software provides students with an opportunity to practice science investigation skills and competencies within a simulated workplace environment. They play the role of new researchers as they are guided through learning tasks, and they work to solve the Monarch Case life science mystery as a member of a team of real and virtual scientists. Each virtual co-worker is portrayed by an actor who interacts with the student to give information, assign work, and give feedback on students performance. Students complete approximately 23 tasks of varying kinds and difficulty levels to solve the case. Solving the entire case requires at least 4 hours.
