Anne Schuchat says that there are a number of forces in public health to be reckoned with: Global - local Humans-animals Natural-man made Catastrophe-complacency Biology teachers are on the front lines of educating the public about these issues #NABT2021

“The weather and climate gap is directly related to the income gap.”@DrShepherd2013 explains the disproporate effects of climate change on vulnerable communities. #NABT2021

Looking for engaging ways to teach cellular respiration and biosynthesis? Join me at 3:30 in M303 to see the storyline I developed and get links to all the resources. #NABT2021

Interested in standards based grading? Join me in room 202 at 2:30 MI Science Teachers I will be sharing my journey towards more equitable grading practices with examples from my 9th grade BioPhysics course. #MSTA2022

The HHMI BioInteractive movie night with Sean B. Carroll is always a highlight of the NABT Conference. We got a sneak peak at two Wild Hope films about salmon & axolotl. #NABT22 “Nature will recover itself if given the opportunity. To me that’s hope.” -Elwha dam removal story

Q&A with Luis Zambrano Sean B. Carroll Key takeaways: Nature is resilient. If you can restore the habitat, the wildlife can come roaring back. Representation matters. Students have to see scientists that look like them. Hope - we can make a difference #NABT22 #NABT2022

I just used ProposalSpace to submit my proposal, "Implementing Standards-Based Grading When the Rest of Your School Uses Traditional Grading ", to NABT 2023 Professional Development Conference Call for Proposals! #NABT proposalspace.com/calls/d/1536

Very excited the MABT - Michigan Association of Biology Teachers conference is back this year! I hope to see all of my bio teacher friends there!@NABT_News

I’m very excited to present National Center for Science Education workshop about climate change and place-based learning with Mr. J Cook to kick off #nabt2023

Very powerful to hear how National Center for Science Education Teacher Ambassador Mr. J Cook developed a place-based activity exploring the connection between climate change and Lyme disease for his students in IN. #nabt2023

Young people are suffering from climate anxiety. We can build constructive hope by emphasizing climate solutions & changes necessary to achieve those solutions. TikTok is not just a teenage wasteland; it can be used to engage people in climate action. -Lauren Feldman #nabt2023

Humor is a way of reaching climate deniers because humor requires mental work to “get the joke” so there aren’t cognitive resources left to counter argue. Comedy also brings people together, is more enjoyable than news, and inspires hope. -Lauren Feldman #nabt2023

Normalize talking about climate change. Meet people where they are. Offer hope. Entertainment and social media may be the thing that gets people to take notice of climate change. Lauren Feldman #nabt2023

We are so excited to have @Laelaps presenting at the #NABT2023 Evolution Symposium. After we hear from Riley, our National Center for Science Education Teacher Ambassador Chandler Tawney will share NGSS-aligned lessons for teaching evolution.

Hey #NABT2023 attendees: OBTA Chandler Chandler Tawney will be leading us through National Center for Science Education evolution lesson at 11:30 in Laurel C.

We could have ended up with another age of reptiles [after the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs], but for whatever reasons that we’re still trying to understand, it was mammals that really took over. @Laelaps National Center for Science Education #NABT2023
