DESCRIPTION:2022 Park Science Colloquium \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGreat Smoky Mountains National Park and DLiA present the annual 2022 Science Colloquium virtually over Zoom. Learn about the science happening in Great Smoky Mountains National Park from the local and regional researchers that are making it happen! Registration is free and open to the public. \n\n\n\nLocation: virtual via Zoom \n\n\n\nRegistration: It’s free! Use the button below. Speakers DO NOT need to register and will receive a custom Zoom link via email. \n\n\n\n\nSchedule & abstracts (PDF)\n\n\n\nTeacher workshop\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMissed the colloquium? No problem!

Presenters will be set as “panelists” on the Webinar\, meaning that they can do most of the normal functions of a Zoom Meeting (share video\, audio\, and screen). Audience members will be able to ask questions and we will help manage questions. We’ll send presenters more information about what to expect closer to the colloquium. \n\n\n\nTime slots: Presentation slots will be TBD minutes (including time for questions). We will send you a finalized schedule close to the event and will provide more details about the Q&A after each talk. \n\n\n\nPresentation format: Slide decks can be in any format (speakers will share their screen via Zoom)\, however we recommend PowerPoint\, PDF\, Google Slides or Keynote in wide-format (16:9). \n\n\n\nKnow your audience: Please note that many in the audience will have advanced degrees\, but few will have advanced degrees in your topic\, so plan to provide a bit of explanation of technical jargon and stay away from acronyms.

Created in partnership by Discover Life in America and the Tennessee Valley Authority\, iScience offers resources and training for biodiversity exploration. Students use the iNaturalist app to observe and identify species\, learning about the plants\, animals\, and other organisms that make up local ecosystems. In this workshop\, we will discuss the resources iScience offers\, how to use the iNaturalist app to make an observation\, and how the iNaturalist app is being used for data collection in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. \n\n\n\nQuestions? Contact aurora@dlia.org \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho can attend?\n\n\n\nThe workshop is open to anyone including teachers\, other educators\, and parents\, but will be aimed toward those educating 5th to 8th graders. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore the workshop\n\n\n\nBefore the workshop\, please download iNaturalist on your Apple or Android device and follow instructions in the app to create an account. Feel free to explore the app beforehand and bring your questions about it to the workshop. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin the Science Colloquium \n\n\n\nWe encourage participants to join the Great Smoky Mountains National Park Science Colloquium\, a series of virtual presentations from scientists working in the Smokies. Talks will be on a variety of fascinating topics and are geared for a general audience. It will take place the same day (March 3rd) from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM ET\, also on Zoom.
