The LEO 2001 Clear Box Collaboratory Experiment
Dr. Lisa Covi, Social Scientist Specializing in
Technology Use
The site was truly a vibrant scientific
enterprise. Each piece of science would be
exciting in its own right but your ability to
extract the most from each component by creating
an environment of intellectual curiosity,
excitement and sharing made the whole enterprise
flourish. - Eric Hartwig, July 2000
