“When you’re an adolescent, feeling stupid in front of other people is something to be avoided at all costs. We have to learn to replace the thought—‘I’m stupid’—with another thought, which is ‘I’m learning.’” @angeladuckw on the fear of failure.

@vogannod@NSTA@caahayes Once the parents see how engaged their children are with science, they will be more willing to help. The first year is the toughest sell because they are not sure what to expect. Our parent tell us that this night is the one event they will not miss every year #NSTAchat
@caahayes Have a sign up list after the event at the exit for parents that are willing to help out for the next year. They can give name, email address and info. Some may make great presenters! #NSTAchat
