Success! Antarctica Reconnects to the Titan Classroom

True to its mission to bring experts from the field into the classroom, the GLE is celebrating its most recent accomplishment... Jean Pennycook, a penguin researcher working at McMurdo Station in Antarctica, was able to Skype into the Titan class. She spent about 45 minutes with the students, sharing penguin stories and her research mission. It was a powerful presentation that saw two separate screens running simultaneously as we had her video feed running from Camp Royds, Antarctica and additionally, her "penguin predation" Powerpoint presentation on another screen. I have posted some pictures (with permission) and will be adding scans of student reflections soon.
