"Something to think about:
The Earth is 4.6 billion years old. Let's scale that to 46 years. We have been here for 4 hours. Our industrial revolution began 1 minute ago. In that time, we have destroyed 50% of the world's forests. This isn't sustainable." #WorldEnvironmentDay
Happy Birthday @NSF xitter.cf/nsf/status/99456011255…

If you like comics and dinosaurs (like me) then this is perfect for you! I talked about my informal education project with @IKnowDino that fuses dinosaurs, comics and education. The podcast episode just came out! iknowdino.com/xenotarsosauru… #scicomm #dinosaurs #comicbooks #STEAM

A current GHS student recently brought in these fossil horse and Mastodon teeth his dad received as a gift. Fossils can make excellent presents, especially if you find them yourself! Today's weather in GNV is perfect for collecting! #FossilFriday

Our researchers have found that students involved in this program learn to work better in teams – more focused and more engaged. Ultimately, students who are not typically motivated to study science or math, develop deep interest in #STEAM. xitter.cf/paleoteach/status/9315…
At New Brighton Middle School, students learn about molecules after they download STL, 3D print and paint. How cool is that?! Thanks to creative #STEAM teacher Becca Mussetter @paleoteach participant, @eldrbob @STELAR_CTR @edneuro @UF_COE

This little horned adder (Bitis caudalis) was busy digesting a lizard meal when it was collected. Only the hindlimbs and tail remain intact!
