Smithsonian/MIT Student Educational Game (Vanished) Now Open
An eight-week on-line/off-line educational game for middle school students sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution and MIT is now available at http://vanished.mit.edu/user/register. Students aged 10.5 to 14 take on the role of principal scientific investigators of an environmental disaster which has hit the earth. They will work collaboratively with others and may collect samples near their homes, visit museums, etc., as part of the interactive mystery-solving game.

Players join a group of brave volunteers working together to save the planet. They're challenged to carry out missions to supply solar, wind, and water power before severe storms wreak havoc.
