It was not! I was initially “oh no we won’t get any of our business meeting done” and there I was, petting that furry thing like the hypocrite I am :P

How can we make #entomology click with students? From entomemes to ento-games, Dr. Coffman’s trying it all! 🪲 🗓️ Sun, Nov 9 🕜 1:35–1:53 PM PT 📍 OCC C125–126 🧰 The General Entomology Toolbox: Activities and Practices for Improving a Foundational Course Symposium #EntSoc25 #FITatEntSoc25 #education
How can we make entomology more engaging for today’s students? Join us for Dr. Coffman’s talk highlighting creative, active-learning approaches, from entomemes(!) to ecological card games and family feud stlyle games, that spark curiosity, critical thinking, and connection to real-world entomology in the classroom!

Hello Biologists! My senior college students are learning about grant proposals. I've given them a 500K 3-year hypothetical grant for travel, supplies, personnel, publication costs, etc., It's hard to find sample grants with budgets and budget narratives - are you willing to share?

This grant is about improving biology education through building networks. So, my idea: Wide-spread passive trapping, sharing by-catch, doing barcoding CUREs (Course-based Undergrad Research Education) in our entomology/biology classes, presentation/professional development opportunities for UGs

HEY! If you're an entomologist at an undergraduate-focused college that builds up hilarious amount of Malaise trap (or other passive collecting by-catch), perhaps you'd like to apply for a grant with me? Bonus points for barcoding/biodiveristy/alpha taxonomy. Due late Jan new.nsf.gov/funding/oppo...

You might be asking yourself, "What does FIT offer to me? Scientific societies are expensive!" And we definitely hear you on that - FIT will offer online resources like lesson plans and virtual seminars and workshops, poster sessions, presentations, symposia, and networking events at meetings.

Please broadly share with your friends and colleagues about FIT. As the "one entomologist" in an undergrad bio department, it's a section that provides a home to me in the society. Most of my job is teaching or outreach, and it sometimes feels like I'm on the outskirts. FIT gives me a community.

cmtribull.bsky.social @cmtribull.bsky.social · 28/10/2024
FIT is a pilot section, meaning that it's under review to hopefully become established like the research-based sections. One of the things we need to become a full section is MEMBERS! You can read about FIT and join it here: www.entsoc.org/membership/s....
