I had a wonderful time yesterday at the Ed3DAO presenting on AI-enhanced interactive virtual learning worlds alongside team members Dr. Laura Wilson, Terence Finnegan, and Kilian Schmelmer. Shout out to invaluable team-members Elias Faltin and Pedro Coelho as well!

Do you love teaching paleontology? Maybe you’re a grad student looking for some summer financial support/resume builders? Come work for us!

We’ve got a record high enrollment this year and a bunch of staff positions that need to be filled! Deadlines are coming up soon!

I know 3D is all the rage, but come on. Look at these little Eocene snugglies! (All critters that students can find in the Eocene module of our forthcoming Arctic climate change virtual course.) I maintain my opinion that there's something really endearing about retro pixel art.

Excited to be discussing the AI chatbot-assisted virtual world course I co-built with Komponent Works and Dr. Laura Wilson. We’ll be running a Mastermind session to discuss our approaches for this project at the upcoming Ed3 Futures Summit.

El Niño is a natural event that is based in the Pacific Ocean and happens every two to seven years. The Galapagos Islands are located on the Equator, and it is particularly affected by El Niño. 🧵(1/4) 2024

In Argentina in 1832, Charles Darwin collected his first large vertebrate fossil: Megatherium, a giant ground sloth. He soon realized that studying fossils was essential for understanding how evolution worked.

What a fun day to be discussing Neoaves in vertebrate class with TWO new phylogenies this week alone that have very different divergence timings....and we still don't know what a hoatzin is.
