Alright people. I need your help. Enrollment for Skype a scientist this semester has been -fine- but we can do better. We have so many scientists who want to speak with classrooms! Will you tell a teacher you know about our program 🥺 please?

Send them to skypeascientist.com/sign-up

"I don't like old sci-fi shows, the special effects look too cheesy" you are incapable of joy. Go to the dungeon.

The real difference between fantasy and science fiction is that if you have too many belts, you're fantasy, and if you have too many zippers, you're science fiction. If you have too many of both, you split the difference and land in a contemporary technothriller where everybody is secretly a vampire.

How I feel promoting my free program to match scientists with classrooms for Q&A sessions

Many teachers have been working in overdrive for months (or years), so I can understand they might not have the energy to proverbially text back, but I still gotta tell 'em about Skype a Scientist. We're a nonprofit science education org that matches teachers and librarians with scientists for free Q&As about science.

In these sessions, you can:

Learn about the scientists' areas of expertise

Show your class what a real lab looks like

Talk about the many ways a career in science can take shape.

A 4th thing I haven't thought of yet

Here's how it works:

Step 1: Pick a category of science that your class would like to talk about

Step 2: Sign up on SkypeAScientist.com

Step 3: Get a match via email

Step 4: Connect with your scientist to discuss your classroom's interests and needs

Step 5: Talk about science in your classroom (on whatever platform you like, it does not have to be Skype).

No matter how dangerous the machines were, they had one weak spot—their lack of stealth. They couldn't infiltrate human camps and strike from behind. The robots were quickly identified, no matter how humanoid Skynet tried to make them. But then the T-800 terminators appeared...
