In this episode I chat with illustrator and author, Rachel Ignotofsky about blending illustration and education, crayons, women in STEM, and her latest book, What's Inside A Caterpillar Cocoon? Rachel Ignotofsky is a New York Times Best Selling author and illustrator, based in California. She grew up in New Jersey on a healthy diet of Star Trek and pudding and graduated from Tyler School of Art in 2011 with a BFA in Graphic Design.  Rachel's career as a scientific communicator started by nurturing her own curiosity. Out of college, she created art and infographics about topics she found interesting and important- with a focus in science literacy. She had many friends starting their careers in teaching, and Rachel wanted to create resources to help them with their lessons. Soon Rachel's online store was selling her posters to schools, labs and science enthusiasts across the country and her work was scooped up to be featured on the likes of Scientific American, Fast Company, PRI and PBS. Rachel's art has been embraced by the science community and she has spoken at and partnered with institutions like NASA, The Salk Institute, The San Diego Natural History Museum, The Chicago Field Museum, The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University and many more! Rachel believes when you take the time to organize complex information—and then take the next step to make it beautiful with art — you can reach even the most reluctant learner. Illustration is a powerful tool when it comes to education.  With her first book Women in Science (2016), Rachel used her art to address the growing gender gap in STEM and shed a light on women's stories. It became an instant success and was on the NY Times Best seller list for over 90 weeks. Since then, Rachel has continued to use her background in graphic design and her skills as a storyteller to make dense information and fun and accessible. Her work is published in over 24 different languages and enjoyed by readers all over the world! She has written more books about women's history like Women in Sports (2017) and Women in Art (2019). As well as tackling topics like conservation and climate change in her book The Wondrous Workings of Planet Earth (2018). She has introduced backyard biology to the youngest readers with What's Inside a Flower? (2021) which is the first installment of her new picture book series with Random House Kids. Now she is excited to share her newest book The History of the Computer (2022). This book is the first of its kind — a fully illustrated book that spans over 25,000 years of human history and tells the story of our evolving relationship with technology. Rachel sees all of her books as a love note to educators, and is thrilled to see them used in classrooms.Rachel IgnotofskyRachel's Etsy ShopRachel's BooksThe Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs, Steve BrusatteThe Rise and Reign of the Mammals, Steve Brusatte Support the showThe Bookshop PodcastMandy Jackson-BeverlySocial Media Links

O episódio 26 da segunda temporada do podcast PodAprender traz uma discussão sobre a importância de estimular na escola as meninas a se dedicarem a áreas de estudo chamadas STEM (sigla em inglês para Ciência, Tecnologia, Engenharia e Matemática). Isso porque existe uma grande disparidade de gênero na ciência. Mulheres cientistas acabam se concentrando nas áreas de Humanidades ou Ciências Biológicas, permanecendo em minoria gritante nas Ciências Exatas. E essa questão só pode ser resolvida com muito debate na idade escolar! Quem participa dessa conversa são duas profissionais empenhadas em levar meninas a se encantarem pelas ciências: Mariana Braga, oficial de Programas de Educação da Organização das Nações Unidas para a Educação, a Ciência e a Cultura (Unesco) no Brasil; e a professora de Física e doutora Sônia Elisa Marchi Gonzatti, que coordena o projeto Meninas na Ciência, na Universidade do Vale do Taquari (Univates), no Rio Grande do Sul, e integra o grupo de pesquisa Ciências Exatas, da Escola Básica ao Ensino Superior.

The next book follows on nicely from "Little Leaders" but this one has a sporting lilt. This series of mini biographies is written by Rachel Ignotofsky and not only showcases famous sportswomen in well known sports like tennis and athletics but finds unsung heroes in lesser known pursuits such as skydiving and roller derby. As you will discover, finding your way to sporting glory is a rocky road and does not just require talent but also hard work and in many cases a healthy dose of serendipity. You may well think that you are no good at sport, but maybe just maybe, you just haven't found the right one... There are some great quotes and illustrations in the book as well as a couple of  'visual chapters' that I have not been able to include in my reading - for obvious reasons! I would heartily recommend you find the book in your local library or school library or from you local bookshop as it is not only a great read but a beautiful book to own. If you enjoy this book there are other books in this vein - "Women In Science" and "Women In Art".   Episode 1 - Introduction, Madge Syers, Tiny Broadwick and Bobbie Rosenfeld   Madge Syers Why were women not allowed to compete in competitions? How was she allowed to compete in the 1902 World Championships? Which year did she win the first ever Women's gold medal for Skating? Who was her pairs partner?   Tiny Broadwick What was her real name? And why exactly was she nicknamed ‘Tiny'? Which acts from the carnival was she inspired by? In 1913, she the first person to do what? How do you think she (or her family) felt? Why did she have to retire?   Bobbie Rosenfeld Although Bobbie was Canadian, where was she born? Who did Bobbie beat in her very first 100 metre race? In which events did Bobbie participate during the 1928 Olympics? Why did Bobbie have to retire from playing sport? How do you think this made her feel?

There are a lot of ways to teach science, but where does art fit into the mix? Can art be effective in not just inspiring people to learn science, but also in conveying scientific information? The short answer is yes, it definitely can, because that's precisely what Rachel Ignotofsky has done. Rachel is a New York Times best selling author and illustrator, and her books "Women in Science" and "The Wondrous Workings of Planet Earth" show precisely how effective art can be in organizing and displaying scientific information in a palatable yet efficient way. Rachel stopped by for a chat regarding her process, as well as the challenges we face as science communicators. Take a listen!
