What Is Citizens Science?

To me, Citizens Science is science that can be done by ANYONE and typically involves a collaboration between teachers, adults, and students with a scientist. At the beginning of the year, this concept was new to me; But now that I have had the opportunity to work with Kenan Fellows, I have become part of developing Citizens Science curriculum! I am excited to incorporate this new and innovative concept in my classroom. With Citizens Science, I plan to show my students that they are scientists and that they are capable of having an impact in the science community.

What Are Your Goals?

The reason Kenan Fellows Team Ants has bonded so closely is because we share a common goal. Not only do we want to for fill our duties to Kenan Fellows, but we also feel a strong obligation to improve science education as we know it today by providing curriculum that is realistic and inspiring for science teacher to implement. If students start to learn about science by doing science, we feel the content will leave a lasting impression and passion for science. We love science and we want our students to love science!
