One of the things I’ve learned over the years is how powerful it is when students see that learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. That’s why I’m so excited about Field Notes — a new pilot program I’m launching from January–May 2026.
The vision is simple: connect real classrooms with real field scientists to collaborate on real-world projects. Instead of just reading about science, students will follow along with ongoing research, ask their own questions, and see how discovery happens in real time.
I’m looking for a few Educator Ambassadors to help bring this program into their schools. As part of this first pilot, ambassadors who get their school on board will be invited to join me this summer for one of two Discovery Expeditions — either exploring Lake Superior in May or experiencing the Arctic in July.
If this sparks something for you, let me know. I’ve created a simple one-page overview you can easily share with your administrator, and I’d be happy to send it your way.
