🧬Noel Pauller🧪

@kellyaoconnell @NSTA @AACountySchools @AACPS_Science Thank you so much! We had a great time at NSTA.

What an incredible way of kicking off the @NSTA conference with our very own @AACountySchools AP Biology team presenting on high level engagement through storylines. Mr. Pauller, Mr. Anoff, and Dr. Tatum were inspiring! @AACPS_Science #BelongGrowSucceed #NSTA2025

I recently interviewed @paulandersen to introduce the #apbio storyline unit "A Misadventure in Teaching" youtu.be/YMc5MsuC1wk?si… via @YouTube

I tried using NaCl for the #APBio carrot osmosis experiment to avoid dealing with the sticky mess of sucrose solutions. I'm pretty happy with how this experiment turned out! youtu.be/Ah8p_G50fXQ?si… via @YouTube

@KuhnboBio @nextstrain Nothing extensive, but we had students look at SARS-CoV-2 on @nextstrain, do a reading, and watched a video (@BIOINTERACTIVE maybe?) leading into a socratic seminar in 2022.

Any high school or higher ed using @nextstrain to teach viral evolution in their class?

@AnjanaIyer @dukefarmsnj I am very curious to learn more. Are you planning to share your presentation slides?

Such a fantastic day at @dukefarmsnj for our PD day! Enjoyed co-presenting on the transformative power of generative AI in reshaping assessments to align in 3D with the framework!

@archizackture @smartereveryday I agree. You can hear the species in this video - subway sound starting at 0:20 which is made by Magicicada septendecim (or its 13 year counterpart M. tredecim). At 0:43 you can hear M. cassini (or M. tredecassini) which is the higher pitch. youtu.be/RK1ZgqZD5iU?si… via @YouTube

@smartereveryday Great video. By the way, the different frequencies are indeed different species. There are specific "Pharaoh" cicadas (Magicicada septendecim or tredecim) that make a call like "phaaaaaaraoh... phaaaaaaraoh..." which is the subway-like sound you're hearing.

@chemlimination @NBPTS @chemhemling Good luck! It's so much work. I did 2 and 4 this year. Now the long wait... 🤞

Been pretty MIA due to AP testing and finishing up my @NBPTS portfolios. What a relief that to be done with them this past weekend. If you are interested in pursuing this, read this blog from @chemhemling chemedx.org/blog/my-hero%E… It’s helpful to get a chem teacher’s perspective.

@kilroi22 Fantastic!

An amazing night last night under the aurora! If you have seen enough images, mute me for the next few days because I have A LOT of images. No Moon, clear dark skies, and a high enough latitude for a generational electromagnetic storm! Time lapse, 5s exposures for 33 min.

@MattGresick It's a lot of work! Good luck

@brewerbiology @MarcusLuther6 My school system is ending 1:1 after this year. Students will need to turn in their school issued Chromebooks. My sci dept has really moved away from using tech... I would be curious to see data about the trends

@MarcusLuther6 I recall reading an article on how parents employed by Apple and Google in Silicon Valley are sending their kids to tech-free schools. Yet, schools nationwide move towards 1:1 devices. The irony struck me.

@danshayscience @SpokaneCity I'm sorry Dan😢

Some ass hole stole my 6 year old’s bike while it was parked on my in-laws property this morning. This is my 4th time having a bike stolen in @SpokaneCity , but my little girl’s first time experience with theft. Fuck the person who stole more innocence from her.

@MattGresick Good luck! Took mine last year, I am working on 2 and 4 this year.

@thebiospace Cool! I am so happy you got to see it😎

@Mr_Miller_Sci Cool shirt btw! Where did you get it?

@Mr_Miller_Sci That unit when some select individuals might want to call you names?

Todays shirt. Guess the topic we are starting

@KuhnboBio @crevicedwelling Have you ever looked into doing eDNA sampling with your students?

@crevicedwelling I’d like to dna barcode earthworms on our campus next year. See how many are invasive.

@danshayscience I remember digging these with my uncle when I was a kid. Might have been at Birch Bay...

Definitely one of the weirdest creatures there is…

Come to Washington! Discover the simple pleasure of walking through a minefield of geoducks, or as my kids have dubbed them “‘quirties” . 🤣

@Mr_Miller_Sci @KathyCeceri @NSTA @KidWind_Project @microbit_edu @MSMakeCode Hope you have a great time. I saw that Mark Robert is the keynote speaker👀

@KathyCeceri @NSTA @KidWind_Project @microbit_edu @MSMakeCode I will also be at @NSTA this week. We just started talking about a project like this since Windfarms are a hot topic out here!

Who else is heading to @NSTA this week? I'll be hanging out at the @KidWind_Project booth and leading their Clean Energy & Coding workshop Friday at 2:40. I'm excited to share ways to add @microbit_edu to solar, wind, and water power projects with @MSMakeCode. Come by and say Hi!

@thebiospace We are on break next week. 😁 Just finishing up unit 6, with ecology and natural selection coming up!

@thebiospace @mbraaten I went to their presentation at NABT last fall, it was really inspiring. I tried out the melanin storyline and have been creating my own for AP bio...
