Workshop in Laramie Wyoming

6/19/2013

“Children can’t be educated until they are 
engrossed in subject matter and 
teachers can’t well create conditions for engrossment without sharing in it.”
Teacher from Laramie, Wyoming joined us to mess about with natural materials that are native to their region. The excitement of collaboration took over and before their very eyes a village came to life and took over table after table of the classroom.

David and Frances talked about the power of eolithism - the use of resources, both physical and intellectual that are already in place. As a group, we discovered the natural resources and interests and relished in the joy of having time and space to explore them.

The exhibit's move to Wyoming marked the first time the exhibit left Colorado and the management of Hawkins Centers of Learning. We could not have asked for a more perfect host!

The vision of the University of Wyoming Biodiversity Institute is to, "foster the understanding, appreciation and conservation of biological diversity through innovative research, education, outreach, and by engaging a broad audience in the scientific process." It is housed in the beautiful Berry Center, a new Green Building which is home to cross-disciplinary studies including ecology, genetics, biology, philosophy, education, and art. The Center and Institute would surely hold a dear place in David's heart, following his own beliefs about the inherent integration of science and daily life.
