I can't recommend working with Galactic Polymath highly enough!! 👇👇
We CAN'T actually keep our eyes on the ball...😯 We teamed up with Galactic Polymath to animate how our eyes detect and track fast moving objects. This research is used by the Air Force to build better software systems for optical hardware. youtube.com/watch?v=-EDQTw…
Very excited to share our video supporting this amazing research that made the cover of Current Biology! "Keep your eye on the ball! (Why robber flies can’t and neither can you)" 📽️youtube.com/watch?v=-EDQTw… feat Stephanie Castillo, Ph.D. Sykom
What do you get when 3 SAi Residents combine their superpowers? This incredible video on Emergence. Shot, edited, scored, and starred in by Stephanie Castillo, Ph.D.. Cartoons drawn by Caroline Hu. Part of the Animal Collective Unit of Galactic Polymath. youtube.com/watch?v=mD24yi…
*New FREE Release!* •Why do animals live in groups? •How does complexity emerge from simple rules? •Why do echo chambers form in social media? 🤔🐟Just a few Qs students dive into in our latest unit! feat Albert Kao Stephanie Castillo, Ph.D. Caroline Hu galacticpolymath.com/lessons/en-US/7
Birdsong folks! I'm working on a Galactic Polymath unit w/ Creanza Lab to get students more curious about the bird sounds around them. We're designing a video challenge to identify birdsongs in popular media: TV, movies, games. Looking for accurate+inaccurate exmaples. Suggestions?
On this last day of #AANHPI Heritage Month, super excited to share Pacific H2O: a 4 lesson high school unit that applies engineering mindsets to water purification through a Pacific lens! Sponsored by University of Canterbury, developed w/ collaborators in NZ, US & Samoa! galacticpolymath.com/lessons/en-NZ/…
How do we help students ask better Qs? For one thing: model it. Watch 1:59 in our new Galactic Polymath vid to see indigenous ethnobotanist Rose Bear Don't Walk rattle off 21 Qs from a picture prompt...in 1 take! 👏👏👏 Inspiring! youtu.be/zvpY3RqmAno?si… edited by Stephanie Castillo, Ph.D.
This video supports Lesson 1 of "SciJourneys," a middle school + unit unpacking scientific methods. Two more lessons coming soon! For Galactic Polymath lesson w/ Jocelyn Bosley. Sponsored by If/Then galacticpolymath.com/lessons/en-US/…
What type of bird is singing in the background of Taylor Swift’s “Exile”? 🎶🐦 Learn how Vanderbilt College of Arts and Science Professor Nicole Creanza followed and combined her interests to create an educational birdsong game for students in grades 6-12. as.vanderbilt.edu/news/2024/06/2…
Wish I could be at #Evol2024 this year! For anyone doing evolution outreach or interested in teaching about adaptations through a creative design challenge, check out this video Galactic Polymath created w/ Emilie Snell-Rood! youtu.be/J8FffhjZd2Q?si… 👏edited by Stephanie Castillo, Ph.D.
🧪🔥 HybridZones: Evolution's testing grounds is out!🐟 🍓 🐦 A free high school unit based on Dr. Amber Rice's U.S. National Science Foundation -funded work. For this outreach, Galactic Polymath made a game that connects natural selection to climate change! 🔗 galacticpolymath.com/lessons/en-US/8 🎬 youtube.com/shorts/ASXjSI6…
