A Jersey Girl’s Passion for Nature and STEM: Using Birds as a Springboard for Learning
We all know that students are more motivated to learn if their teacher is truly passionate about the subject and makes it come alive. Join Dale Rosselet, New Jersey Audubon’s Vice President for Education for this whirlwind tour of New Jersey’s bird migration, backyard birds, bird science, bird conservation, birds and climate change, bird competitions, youth birding opportunities and of course, the beauty and comfort given from connecting with nature through birds and birdwatching.
Ms. Rosselet has been with New Jersey Audubon since 1983 and has extensive experience teaching pre-school, elementary, and secondary grades in both formal and non-formal situations. As Vice President for Education she oversees all statewide and center-based educational programming efforts for the organization as well as nature center operations.
