Education and Outreach 4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months agoThe KU Natural History Museum took our Pop-Up Paleo mobile museum across western Kansas last week, making stops in the towns of Salina, Great Bend, and Garden City. Our goal was to engage underserved audiences outside of our eastern KS base. Despite the intense heat (one of the student employees nearly passed out from heat exhaustion in S…[Read more]

Meetings and Conferences 4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months agoI personally thought that NAPC 2019 was a fantastic conference. I was so busy having fun and learning new things that I almost forgot that my 8-year wedding anniversary fell right in the middle of the conference on June 25th – haha! The conference accommodations weren’t swanky, but it was kind of fun to stay in a college dorm once again… and…[Read more]

Vacation Explorers 4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months agoWhile attending the North American Paleontological Convention (June 22-27, 2019) in Riverside, CA, I snuck off for a day at the La Brea Tar Pits & Museum. It was awesome to take my time going through the museum and exploring all over the site itself (instead of being rushed through on a quick tour). I was able to ask a bunch of geeky taphonomy…[Read more]

NAPC 4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months agoWhat was your favorite talk at NAPC 2019? I think mine was Dr. Karen Chin’s on mutualistic relationships as evidenced through coprolite (and other excretory) deposits 🙂
-
Sounds super fascinating! Though I’m glad I don’t need to develop a relationship with bugs to keep parasites away 🙂

NAPC 4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months agoA little late in posting here, but I just got back from the KU NHM’s traveling Pop-Up Paleo mobile museum trip across western Kansas. Here is a picture of UGA affiliated folks who attended NAPC 2019!Thanks to Kris Kusnerik for the photo!@kristopher-kusnerik, @sally-walker

Great shot!

@egardner I must admit to being disappointed when they were calling for group photos from various colleges such as this one from UGA. My school wasn’t called! I suppose that it is possible that I was the only one there to have graduated from General Motors Institute (now Kettering Institute).
-
Haha! True, @jkallmeyer. I imagine that very few graduates of General Motors / Kettering Institute have achieved the same level of Cincinnati Arch fossil expert knowledge that you have!

Imaging and Digitization for Avocational Paleontologists Workshop 4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months agoHello Everyone,
We will be uploading all of the tutorial documents used during the workshop to the website. For now, we will use the google drive folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KsNx03RIFVn8k74IJ0dt223BET-_5lxu?usp=sharing
See you tomorrow!

NAPC 4 years, 10 months ago4 years, 10 months ago4 years, 10 months agoDiscussion thread for participants of the Educators Workshop on Tuesday (June 25) Workshop:
- What was your favorite presentation? Why? How do you think you can incorporate into your class?
- What do you need more information on to successfully employ the activity in your classroom?
- What would you have liked or have expected to have…

I love the ability to digitally manipulate the fossil specimens on Digital Atlas of Ancient Life. I will definitely use the lesson plans on iDigFossils. I would like to acquire some physical models to use in my classroom. I expected to receive ideas to effectively implement the 5 E’s in science in the area of paleontology.
-
I like the 5E lesson plan with the Digital Atlas of Ancient Life website. I also enjoyed the hands on lesson using the 3D printed fossils and how it connected to a larger story of the animals that harmed the bison. I wish I had 3D printed fossils. I need more time to go through all the lessons. I appreciate the wide range of resources to use in…[Read more]
-
My favorite presentation was the hands-on 3D fossil models where you had to match the bite with the damage seen on the bones. I think I can incorporate this into a fun scientific method lesson. I teach Geology and Astronomy so the climate change is very interesting and relevant to my curriculum. Any material that included climate change would be…[Read more]

My favorite presentations were the ones on the use of Digital Atlas and iDigFossils. I loved the resources they showed us and the practical classroom/lesson plan application of those resources. I think they will be especially helpful when discussing fossils with students and teaching them that each fossil tells its own story. I would like more…[Read more]
