Reflections

This stage of my project would be much clearer if I was enrolled in the methods course in STEM education that I wanted to participate in.  Currently much of my time is being spent on revisions that would be easily accessed if I was enrolled in the Endeavor STEM leadership certificate program.   

This problem statement for my topic is hard to develop.  I am going to revisit the textbook to see if I can gain some insight as it pertains to my topic.

Text is friendly but I am studying the details as if I needed to take a test in a college class.

I really could use a science specific resource person.  This type of education course is useful but in the context of day to day teaching having someone that knows the content and can provide meaningful suggestions including knowledge of content would be ideal and practical for my daily teaching.

The autumnal equinox yesterday at 16:44, sees the daily periods of daylight waning and the periods of darkness are becoming longer. Fall is a decent time of year and with predictable patterns which exist at the mid-latitudes.
My topic paper relied on work that was completed last fall in INTC 5160. I will be toiling with implementing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) through:
Eyes in the Sky II An opportunity for teachers and their students to observe, investigate, and understand our planet using an eyes-in-the-sky perspective.
ImageJ is free public domain image processing software developed at the National Institutes of Health. Its power and flexibility allow it to be used as a research tool by scientists in many disciplines, from medicine to astronomy.
GLOBE (Global Learning and Observation to Benefit the Environment)
Atmosphere protocols.
