Our Penn State College of Education research team was excited to present our work about supporting family talk and learning in informal settings with augmented reality at NARST 2025. I had great conversations with my Strand 6 and Strand 14 colleagues. @narst.bsky.social @psuedu.bsky.social
This is the first slide from our NARST presentation.  It reads: "Rural families learning geosciences concepts in an outdoor children's garden".

Please please, GIVE ME A SIGN YOU'RE REAL! "1.
