Welcome to Week 3 of meta-academy@bates2013: Minded Motion.

Our theme for the week is “Engagement + Harvest”.  Our activities this week will both ask you to connect in real time with another lab member, to collaborate asynchronously, and to reflect on your overall lab experience.

Here’s what we’ll be up to this week.  Each activity has its own discussion forum
