Over the next few months I'll be using this space to ask questions. Of myself, of my readers, and of my students. I want to carry part of my classroom into this quiet little mini-world that is my blog - a mere subatomic particle in the wild, expanding universe of electronic experience that is the Internet! - the part that marries big picture ideas with local examples, course content with current events.
So give me some rein - let me guide you through my thoughts, my musings, as I look for pieces, patterns, and process in my surroundings, and then, only if you like, teach you something new along the way.
I teach sciences here in Inuvik, and my background is in environmental biology and ecology. But don't let that scare you away. I prefer analogies and parables over jargon and nomenclature (whoops - was that jargon? haha). Current events, local research, and everyday living offers ample fodder for illustrating concepts, so fear not. Just sit back and stay tuned.
