NMSU GK12 DISSECT Program

I am currently supported by a fellowship from the NSF GK12 Program. My particular fellowship is funded through the New Mexico State University Computer Science Department to promote "computational thinking" in grade school classrooms. I am working with Mrs. Rachel Knight. In 2011-2012, I worked with Rachel's 7th and 8th grade Agriscience class. This year, we continue our teaching partnership, but at a new school and new grade level, and with new classes: I will be working with her Biology, Environmental Science, and Introduction to Agriculture classes.

I will be updating this page with summaries of the activities that I develop for the class.

Module 03: Food webs & footprints

I was in class several times over the past two weeks to deliver my third module to the agriscience class. This module focused on food webs and how dietary choices affect the environment. See the full summary of Module 03: Food webs & footprints here.

Here are a few photos of the module in action:
