Some teachers are willing to go all the way for their students. That’s what James Wenman of the Holy Trinity Catholic School in Des Moines, Iowa, did when he spent a good part of the summer at Iowa State University.
Here is what James had to say at the end of his RET project: “This program has allowed me to see into the world of science through the eyes of a researcher. Research is a dynamic field, evolving constantly. It involves encountering errors, repeating activities, and undergoing continuous learning processes.”
James came into our Research Experience for Teachers program to expand his knowledge in different scientific areas to “bring cool things back to my classroom.” We think he nailed it with his project, “Adapting growing practices of North American maize production to improve environmental affects.” You can learn more about James’ research project, “at https://lnkd.in/gshd7KGK
