@DrSeaBove I might be able to sneak away from my class early or for at least a few minutes if you'd be interested in someone with a marine science masters degree who ended up as a physics teacher and emergency response scuba diver (aka NOT exactly in marine science lol)
Today, we hear from Laura Romanovich, our general education science instructor, as we continue to celebrate Women's History Month. #WomensHistoryMonth#WeWork
@subsurface_life Shared with my undergrad mentor! I had an awesome experience when I took part a few years ago and wish I was still an undergrad so I could do it again! 😆
Me on a Saturday night inventing biology research projects despite having a full time physics teaching job, at a non-research institute.
(Maybe a summer project or two or four if I can find some independent funding 🤣)
@Will_Bunch Higher ed is about engaging students & personal and professional growth.
Its about fostering connections between the course materials and experience/current events. It should encourage connections between multiple courses and across semesters.
E-courses haven't gotten there yet
@Will_Bunch This is not the answer.
Unless were talking about a for profit venture that churns out degrees for students who do little more than show up.
Teaching an online class now and its depressing how disengaged students are. Yet they expect to pass because "online classes are easy"
After a lecture about heat pumps and heat engines, students were shown an example of a heat turbine (engine) and then tasked with building one of their own.
