Connecting the foundational theory of modern biology to California’s Central Valley
A collection of resources for classroom teachers and students
OUR GOAL
Hi, my name is Scott Hatfield. I'm a science teacher employed by the Fresno Unified School District, and for the last ten years I've been teaching Biology and working as a local activist for science education. In July, I will be taking coursework in the Geology and Biology of the Galapagos Islands. The biological equivalent of a pilgrimage, I am hoping that what I see and experience will make me a more effective instructor in Biology, particularly as regarding evolution and natural selection.
I don't intend to stop there, however. I want to be able to document my voyage of discovery and bring the experience into the classroom----not just my own future classes, but to the Central Valley as a whole.
This multimedia project by students from the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill chronicles the competing interests of nature conservancy and native populations in the Galapagos.
EQUATORIAL, PICTORIAL!
Watch this charming video from BIG GREEN RABBIT, that says in song what so many lovers of nature feel in their hearts when they contemplate the Galapagos Islands . . .
