The mission of BioInteractive is to supply educators with free resources to teach science. Their booth, presentations, and associated staff and teachers have been part of the NSTA and NABT conference landscape for a while now. I have alluded to HHMI’s BioInteractive and its resources several times in this blog (in fact, another one of its short films launched me into a multi-week exploration of fossil misconceptions) but I’m delighted to have the chance to talk more about both the program and this resource in general.Īnyone who has attended a teacher conference in the last five or so years has probably encountered BioInteractive. And now, on to the post.įirst up for me is the HHMI short film The Making of the Fittest: Natural Selection and Adaptation. If you are a teacher and interested in providing feedback please let us know! We’d love suggestions for resources and a list of opinionated teachers to contact. When we can, we will connect with actual in-the-classroom teachers to get their thoughts. Qualifications for consideration are that the resource must: 1) be free 2) have something to do with evolution, climate change, or the nature of science and 3) be terrific.
POCKET MOUSE EVOLUTION SERIES
One of the ideas we came up with was a new blog series in which we will review a classroom resource and put on our teacher hats to discuss how it could be used. No details yet, but watch this space-things are going to get awesomer (yep, that’s a word-or it is now). In addition to basking in the 70° sunshine, the trip was fabulous because it yielded some new ideas and exciting discussions.
I made my second trip out to NCSE HQ a couple of weeks ago.
