4 years, 8 months ago4 years, 8 months agoHi, @dellingson – You can update the higher order classification following the PBDB: https://paleobiodb.org/classic/basicTaxonInfo?taxon_no=44957
Do you remember what formation this specimen came from? I like to use Macrostrat to figure out the geologic context of different areas: https://macrostrat.org/map/#/z=11.2/x=-122.8313/y=45.1391/bedrock/lines/

Unfortunately, we were unable to find a time that worked well for everyone to hold the intro webinar this week so we are cancelling tomorrow’s date. Bruce and I are brainstorming ideas about how to provide you all with the necessary content prior to the April dig. Some of our ideas are:

1. I graduated from University of Kansas in the fields of human biology and microbiology, and spent the early part of my career in orthopedic surgical sales before becoming a teacher.

I’m excited to work with you as well! What a great opportunity to build a multi-year lesson plan where students can really strengthen and deepen their knowledge and experiences with the material.

Hi Steph,
Thanks for participating! I’m interested in seeing where this cohort takes you in regards to the lesson you’ll develop. I think a taxonomy lesson would be very interesting! I know that you’ll be successful with having someone to work with at your school!

Hey Victor, I had some students upload a bunch of pictures to the database. However, looking at some there are some mistakes or changes that need to be made. Is it possible to put all these in a separate group and in the public database, and then give me the ability to go through and make the corrections?
-
Unfortunately, I don’t think so. I can think of two possible solutions. You could post comments on students fossils, so they can make the corrections. The other option would require you to get the login info for each of your students and make edits within their accounts.
-
Also, I see a couple fossils in the gallery that don’t have a ‘featured photo’. If they go into images, there should be a button that says “Feature Image”, which will make the image appear in the fossil gallery list.
-
I ran out of class time today for all pictures to get uploaded. There will be time in the future that they will be able to do this.

That would be great to create a group. One issue I’m having, is I’m having students put fossils into the database, but they are not showing up when we submit them. There should be about 15, but there are only 2. We will keep trying though.
