I hope someone exported all the data to Canada before it went down. They safe gaurded key data last time.

I agree with everything except the maple syrup part. We make our own up here in the frozen Northland on the border of Canada.

I was just in a meeting this morning about training AI to do better science. It’s easy to trick AI because it can’t access scientific literature. We may have to take down the paywall to get better answers from AI.

Our Balancing Act unit includes fun supporting videos featuring @reichertfroglab.bsky.social & his students, describing why fundamental questions about tradeoffs in frog calling behavior are connected to other systems & to students' lives! youtu.be/3wfd035SSFM

Are there others like this? Where do they live? I think my nephews would love this!

youtu.be/ihPB9eVBMX0?... is a good start. We just need something more recent. Unfortunately, Fox Entertainment (the cannot legally call it news anymore) would probably be too controversial.

Thank you. I will apply :-)

Maybe you can take a look at something I am working on too when it is done in a few weeks. :-) Data literacy tool for 9-12.

#dataliteracy should go here: stemteachingtools.org/tgs/Practices when you are done :-)

Clarification? Do want something that purposefully misleads the viewer into misinterpreting the data?

Draw an answer on a mini white board and hold it up, low tech. Could do something similar on a tablet, high tech.

Put a novel diagram in your slides that is related to your content and ask them a specific question about the diagram that requires them understanding some of what they were just supposed to learn. Difficult to use AI on and help them practice using diagrams or data output.

Depends on whether you are doing it electronically or in class? Electronically, questions of the day they answer in the chat on the way out. You can tell by who answers first (instead of waiting to see peers' answers) who has learned the content.

Earth science data anyone? This looks cool!

Love this assignment. Relevant and complicated at the same time. Winner.

There should be a science dating app where the theme is "do be your weird self, we like you that way."

Just what the world needs. Thanks!

Thanks. I also have a list of "Science Teachers Sharing Resources." Love to curate some good stuff we can all share. May eventually have to peel off by discipline.
