Experiencia de clase

In this highly interactive discussion group, learners will share their favorite science topics and learn about advances in STEM.

This club provides a chance for learners to explore STEM through organic conversation with science-loving peers. Participants are invited to bring their questions and topics to the group. 

Learners will develop and strengthen their skills in:

- Communication skills
- Analyzing information
- Critical thinking 

The instructor will guide the group discussion, presenting discussion questions, and additional background information, and encouraging respectful participation. This is a highly interactive class.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente

Maestría desde American Military University

Hello! My name is Arwen, and I am absolutely passionate about space science, the environment, and teaching! I offer courses about the solar system, planets, natural processes, soil, and the environment. I am a NASA Solar System Ambassador and science author. My Master's is in Space Science, and I have undergraduate degrees in Agricultural Ecology, and Natural Resource Management. I am currently working on a doctorate in STEM education. 

I believe curiosity and learning are human instincts. I try to honor that by asking the learners lots of questions and encouraging them to think about information in new ways.

When not teaching, you can find me hosting "Found in Space: A Science Podcast for Kids and Teens" or playing Dungeons and Dragons and exploring the Southwest with my three homeschooled kiddos and our big, fluffy orange cat named Moose! 

I like to keep class sizes small so each learner can get individualized and full attention. Please feel free to reach out.
