How connected do visitors feel to sharks? Neeti, visiting @AMNH from @YaleEnvironment this summer, is on the case!
This summer our research team @AMNH, along with exhibitions, are very excited to be hosting @NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP) intern, Neeti Jain. Here she is in our Sharks exhibit conducting some evaluations with visitors!

Powerful work with teachers at AMNH during the pandemic. We learned that principles of good teaching are largely similar across remote and in-person settings. Also, building technical support into each session is critical!
What are we learning about teachers' learning during the pandemic? Check out our new article on AMNH teacher professional learning during the Museum closure in JSO @annamacp @karenhammerness @pguptascience #teachers #stem #museums #pandemic #education jstemoutreach.org/article/27…
RCT of an intervention to boost epistemic vigilance. We asked some students: “How might the author be wrong [about vaccines]?” Later, these students were more critical of what they read.

Report Shows Undergraduate STEM Students Heavily Impacted by the Pandemic - Higher Education diverseeducation.com/article… @EMacKolby @karenhammerness @pguptascience
College students who are alumni of the @nycsrmc report that the pandemic has impacted their academic trajectories.
The #NSFFunded study examining the impact of the pandemic on the STEM pathways of NYCSRMC alumni found nearly 50% reporting their academic trajectory has been greatly or moderately affected. To learn how to leverage this data into actionable support- stay tuned! #stayinginscience

Informal/formal STEM partnerships should have an "asset-based perspective . . . recognizing the strength and power of schools and teachers." Check out the January @CADREK12 newsletter feat. collab w/ @AMNH @NYCschools @SEPUP_UCB cadrek12.org/informal-formal…
What are some of the opportunities and advantages of connecting informal and formal STEM learning? Hear from two experts in this engaging 35-min video conversation: youtube.com/watch?v=X-vSZOuB… @RabiahMayas @DinoManSchatz @informalscience @NSF #informalscience #STEMEd #EdResearch
Thanks for the shout out! Our graduates are telling us this routine translates well in remote environment. Visualize phenomena via video and document observations and initial explanations via shared googledoc or jamboard @dtcampbe @karenhammerness

@JaneLubchenco this is being done as part of TRACE, yes?
Systematically monitoring sewage for SARS-COV-2 to predict flares (i.e., outbreaks on college campuses, large corporate workplaces, high schools)using readily available technology! == Potential game changer. But do we have the capacity to implement. @GreningerLab

Fascinated to learn that kids in Chicago listened to school sessions broadcast over the radio during a polio outbreak! Like Zoom classes, but all kids on mute all the time. Also, excellent use of: "Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning?"
