With the tremendous amount of information available to us today, the ability to discern what's reliable from what's not is crucial to combating the spread of misinformation. In 2023, we sat down with Jonathan Osborne, an expert in science education to talk about the tools our students (and really all of us!) need to critically evaluate science news and information. We hope you'll tune into this episode again to hear about the three valuable skills Osborne says we should be teaching our students so they can debunk scientific misinformation.Have a question for Russ?

Ever found yourself marveling at how even the tiniest creatures might wander off into their own little worlds? We sure have, and we bring that sense of wonder to our season finale! Our special guest, the inspiring Skyler Stevens from UNM Gallup campus, joins us to chart the intersection of daydreaming studies in mice and her vibrant journey in the realm of science, from biology to infectious disease research. Imagine, if you will, mice reflecting on checkerboard patterns – it's a delightful thought that might carry a deeper evolutionary purpose, much like the paths that led Skyler from the deserts of the Southwest to the academic thralls of New England and back again.The conversation takes a practical turn, revealing the behind-the-scenes of nurse education and anatomy management. Skyler's experiences in teaching anatomy, complete with the hilarious trials of dealing with unexpected pig uteruses, are bound to bring a chuckle. And if you're an animal lover, you're in for a treat! We share laughs over pet antics, highlighting how these loyal companions weave themselves into the fabric of our lives. Skyler's tales from the classroom and her service dog Missy May's escapades offer a glimpse into the human side of science and education.As we close the book on the year, we reminisce about the Christmas cheer spread among students by Dad and the family dogs, Bunsen and Beaker.

According to a 2015 Pew Research study, 59 percent of Americans believe that science and religion are often in conflict. This perceived tension between the two can be especially challenging for students in fields such as biology, who may encounter scientific theories that seem to contradict their faith. As a biology professor at Brigham Young University, Jamie Jensen has seen firsthand how science can either deepen or diminish students' spirituality. In this week's episode, she shares strategies for helping students approach science in a way that enhances their understanding of God's wonders, rather than detracting from it. “When you're building a testimony and you're gathering spiritual evidence, that evidence is still real, it's still measurable, but the instrumentation we use is different. So instead of using thermometers, or rulers or calipers, we're using our spiritual eyes, personal revelation, feelings that are inside, and it's just as real, but it's not as tangible.” —Jamie Jensen Show Notes 1:45- Teaching Science to Students of Faith6:02- Scientific Process and Spiritual Process8:42- Big S Science and Little S Science10:56- Science is Agnostic?19:18- Comfortable in Uncertainty24:19- Dogmatism26:17- Correct Evidence and False Evidence29:37- Teaching Science in the Home32:17- One Take on Evolution43:03- What Does It Mean To Be All In the Gospel of Jesus Christ?

When we think of science education, the first things that come to mind are textbooks, equations, and experiments. However, there is an often overlooked tool that can captivate students' imaginations and enhance their understanding of scientific concepts: stories. Storytelling has been an integral part of human culture for centuries, and harnessing its power can revolutionize science education. In Episode 245 of Class Dismissed, we will explore how using stories as a teaching tool can engage students, foster curiosity, and unlock a deeper understanding of science. For advice on how to do this, we catch up with the Physicist and host of the popular YouTube channel Kathy Loves Physics, Kathy Joseph. She is also a former Bay Area science teacher who spent 12 years teaching high school physics. Kathy knows what it takes to keep your students intrigued and involved. She also spent decades researching over 400 years of scientific history in her new book, The Lightning Tamers. Educators can foster engagement, simplify complex concepts, stimulate curiosity, enhance retention, and promote critical thinking by integrating narratives into science education. Whether through historical accounts, futuristic adventures, or personal anecdotes, stories bring science to life, making it relevant, relatable, and memorable for students.  To learn more about this, listen to Episode 245 of Class Dismissed.

Teaching science is important. Why? Science is actually a vital part of our everyday lives, and it's important that everyone has at least a basic understanding of it. That's why teaching science is so important. By providing people with a basic understanding of science, we can help them to make more informed decisions about the world around them. We can also help them to develop critical thinking skills and cultivate a sense of curiosity. When we teach science, we give children the tools they need to thrive in an ever-changing world.Free Engineering Design Process PostersOTT 162: Why is it so Important to Teach Students About Careers in STEM?Subscribe and Review:Are you subscribed to my podcast?

About our Guest: Steve Mittwede, PhD, EdSDr. Mittwede is privileged to be a teacher of Earth Science at Randolph School in Huntsville (Rocket City!), Alabama, after having taught at two great classical schools in Texas for the past seven years. Heartily committed to lifelong learning, his most recent degree was an EdS in Educational Leadership from Columbia International University (CIU), following degrees in geology from The College of William and Mary (BS) and the University of South Carolina (MS and PhD), the last two while concurrently working as a full-time mineral resources geologist for the South Carolina Geological Survey.  During that time in South Carolina, he married Dana, and they were blessed with four sons in close succession – all now grown, married, and raising their own broods (13 grandchildren and counting!). Steve also has an MA in intercultural studies from CIU and an MTh in theology from Union School of Theology/University of South Wales (UK). With his family, Steve lived for 23 years in Ankara, Turkey where he worked as an educator, academic researcher, consulting geologist, and scientific/technical editor. His main research “squeeze” over the last few years has been the great Peripatetic, Theophrastus, a paragon of scholarly virtues that are especially applicable in science education.Show NotesAdrienne interviews master teacher, Dr. Steve Mittwede on the art of teaching science. As an expert in the classroom, Steve brings practical ideas for teachers to consider for good, truth-driven instruction. He discusses in detail how to help students use good language (grammar mode of the trivium) to help them in habits of attending and defining their observations. We also discuss the truth pursuits around the unity of knowledge and how important this is to the foundation of integerated instruction. If truth is a foundation to classical education, then integrating all the "subjects" together ought to matter! His Three Realms of Knowing is a construct he developed about 20 years ago showing students that everything fits together. Some topics in this episode include: What is a good definition of science? How should science text books be used? What are best practices in the art of teaching science? How to engender conversations for good scientific hypothese Why nature study is critical for good science practices with students How scientific thinking can help us integrate and make connections to all truth and reality.  The Law of Noncontradiction Horizontal integration of science with poetry and Socratic inquiry Books & Resources In This EpisodeAristotle's Metaphysics"Learning Scholarly Virtues from Theaphrastus" by Dr. Mittwede, published by SCLOpus Majus by Roger BaconPoems for Science classHymn before Sun-rise, in the Vale of Chamouni By Samuel Taylor ColeridgeI Am Like a Slip of Comet by Gerard Manley HopkinsQuotes that Dr. Mittwede uses in his science classes"Truth, like gold, is not be obtained by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold."- Leo Tolstoy"I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist.
