Episode Synopsis

It’s back-to-school week, part 2!  This week, we have released two episodes featuring educator storytellers as they begin another year, helping our students grow. Our second set of guests includes a high school teacher, a college biology professor, and a science consultant for the local Area Education Agency.  Welcome to Sierra Bullerman, Dr. Paul Skrade, and Jason Martin-Hiner!  Join us as we discuss how science teachers use stories to create context from facts, how science can be a social endeavor, and how to increase understanding of the science process, as well as encourage more people to pursue careers in the realm of science. We hope you enjoy our peek behind the curtain into some classrooms this week as many schools everywhere start up their fall semester.
