"CANDLE IN A BOX"

INTERACTIVE LAB EXERCISE


Acknowledgments:

We gratefully acknowledge the help of the students in the Fall 1998 section of the Biological Imaging and Visualization course at Trinity University, our very capable student assistants Julie Stephens and Erica Gutierrez, our web consultant Seven Bohannon, and Physics professors Dr. Fred Loxsom and Dr. Richard Bartels.

The authors' efforts are being funded through an NSF CCD grant (95-54805) where synergistic relations between statistics and biology education are being sought.
