Specimen Collecting and Photography


We will be taking a break from the educational technology development stuff next week.  My boys are visiting and I am sure that work will shift to specimen collecting.  Yes, that means fishing.

Photography will be on the agenda too.  It is so hot, windy, and bright (sunny) in western Oklahoma this time of year that it is difficult to take good images during the daytime.  So we will collect during the day and do some photo sets in the evenings.  The goal is to "stock the shelves" with images and video to use in classroom podcasts and presentations.  The students really like seeing multimedia you have done yourself and hearing the story that goes along with it.

I am in the middle of another project to organize the physics and chemistry materials from the workshop at Oklahoma School for Science and Mathematics and incorporate them into our 8th grade science curriculum.  More to come on this.

  1. I am interested in learning a bit about your physics materials in particular.
