Welcome back, everyone! We were so excited to see everyone at our first virtual lab meeting last week and can’t wait for this semester, beginning with getting ready to launch our Evolving Minds curriculum project in Somerville.

Emma Pitt was a longtime lab manager, and she had a hand in every project over the last 3 years. Emma was instrumental in the speciation storybook study, teacher PD study, and our research on anchoring phenomena. Emma started a PhD program at Northeastern University this fall!

Manuela Benitez de la Cruz worked in our lab starting in 2019 and was involved in Lizette’s Earth Agency research. Manuela helped with the data collection & qualitative coding for the earth agency study. She's currently an undergrad psych student at the University of Surrey.

Clarification: we’ve sent out another round of books to teachers who requested them and are still taking orders through this link: https://t.co/IPpLKQLLFt

[Child Cognition Lab @buchildlab]

Update on crowdfunding: We’ve sent books to everyone that has asked for them and are happy to report that our storybooks are helping children learn about biological concepts at home and in schools during this difficult time!
