This is achieved by deploying a multilingual online federation of learning repositories, populated with quality content from various content producers. An multilingual online environment (the Organic.Edunet Web portal) facilitates end-users’ search, retrieval, access and use of the content in the learning repositories. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=85374 Collection of Greenhouse Teaching Resources including digital photographs, video clips, living glossary, and flash greenhouse environment simulator (in progress).
