Disruptive Innovation: Nature’s Scitable Replaces Life Sciences Textbooks
Just over a year ago, Nature Publishing Group’s new Education Division quietly launched the Beta of a revolutionary idea: Replace expensive textbooks with a free collaborative learning space for science. Scitable.com went live in January, 2008 and has quickly become a magnet for serious students of genetics (the first field that Nature is addressing).
Now, a year after its beta, Scitable.com is alive and well. Students and faculty from all over the world are actively using Scitable’s resources to teach and learn about genetics.
What can you do on Scitable?
