How are you sharing your research experience with students?
I'm preparing my students in many ways. One is simply through pictures and maps on the walls of my classroom. I showed the IMAX film, "Antarctica," in my class to highlight some of the features of the continent. In my class at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (DMNS),I showed a video of micrometeorite recovery from the south pole water well.
I have also put together a pre-trip PowerPoint that I have been showing at department meetings and faculty in-services.
One activity that I'm proud of is a meteorite search activity that allows the students to conduct a mock meteorite search. I tie this in with the meteorite searches taking place through the ANSMET team.
