“The Mind Project Learning and Research Center” builds on the existing strengths of ISU’s Mind Project and is “positioned to become not only the Internet destination for state-of-the-art research and curriculum materials, but a digital public square where innovation abounds.” The project will, for example, facilitate student-faculty collaborations, sponsor national and international teleconferences, offer entire sequences of distance education courses, publish electronic books and articles, and debate research and public policy issues. It draws on faculty from 9 CAS departments and from CeMaST, the College of Education, and CAS-IT, as well as faculty from off campus: Anthropology, Biological Sciences, CAS-IT, CeMaST, Chemistry, English, Foreign Languages, Mathematics, Milner Library, Philosophy, Physics, Psychology, the College of Education, as well as teams from the Central Illinois Neuroscience Foundation (CINF), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the MIT Press.
