In this week's episode, Jason talks with Jesse Bjorkman and Dylan Hooper about a unique classroom experience for their students. Jesse and Dylan are Teachers in the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District in Alaska. They are both Hunter Information and Training (HIT) Program volunteer instructors and have found a creative way to combine their careers and volunteer opportunities. Started in 2013, an extended learning opportunity-Alaska Outdoor Explorations-provides students a way to experience a long tradition in their home state, HUNTING. During the episode, Jesse and Dylan explain how the idea to provide a science experience through hunting to their students, what type of information is taught to the students, student reactions, and community support for the experience.
