Major Sections & Navigation


Four major themes divide the Chickscope project into sections. These themes are represented by the colorful folder tabs to the left of each page. Each tab is labeled with the corresponding theme, and is color-coded to enhance the distinction between sections.

Each tab represents the following sections:

EXPLORE Covers the sciences: embryology, mathematics, image processing, et cetera. Lessons covering particular topics may also be found within the EXPLORE section.
ROOSTS Quasi-official sources of information written by the Chickscope researchers and personnel. Often the best place to look for contact information or personal responses from the staff members. Not all staff have ROOSTS though.
SCHOOLS Home pages and information about the schools participating in the current incarnation of the Chickscope project.
HELP Help pages for either the entire website or for individual programs. Help pages are context-sensitive: the HELP tab from a program page - like the Database - points to the help page specifically about that program. From the Database help, the HELP tab goes to this page.

The tabs change color depending upon the mode and the location of the current page. Assuming JavaScript has been enabled, each time the mouse passes over a tab, the tab shifts color. When selected, the tab changes again.

Untouched EXPLORE Tab EXPLORE Tab Preselected EXPLORE Tab Selected
The EXPLORE tab on pages outside of the EXPLORE sections of the website - as it would appear on pages in the SCHOOLS section, for instance. The EXPLORE tab, when the mouse passes over it, as it would appear in on pages outside of the EXPLORE sections of the website. The EXPLORE tab as it appears when selected, and on all pages within the EXPLORE section.

The tabs change color "permanently" on pages contained within a particular section. This visual cue helps to identify the current, active section of the website. Selected tabs point to the top-level page of the current section.
