I'm a naturalist, chemist, physicist, and a geologist. Whether you are a new science teacher or have taught for many years, you realize how important it is for the students to see how science is everywhere and in everyone. Adding Elementary Computers to my teaching experience is a beginning step to having students explore the science of Technology. A few years ago, a Quiz Bowl team I had advised wore a team Tee with this quote from Albert Einstein: "The important thing is to never stop questioning...". How better to explain the nature of Science education and learning than as an environment of questioning and curiosity. This, I feel, is why I love teaching....to create life-long learners captured by their own questioning and curiosity.
