As promised....more updates from the #RockEDU aquarium! Our latest endeavor is... #aquascaping! The RockEDU team researched the best foreground, midground and background plants for our aquarium, and took into account the best combination of substrate, fish and plant spread for a thriving #ecosystem! Shortly, we’ll be adding new species of fish! Want to stay updated? Have questions? Comment below ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #rockeduaquarium

This week, on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, #RockEDU hosted a mentorship training workshop for individuals taking on summer mentees. This workshop was divided into three sessions focused on: 1) The Self - This was all about providing mentors with an opportunity to understand their mentorship style, skills and traits. 2) The Project - This session was devoted to crafting a meaningful and realistic project for a summer mentee. 3) The mentee - In our final session, we focused on mentor-mentee communication (including instructions and feedback!). In many of our sessions we had open-discussions based on prompts or “mock” scenarios.
"When we think of science, do we think of: DIY projects, lab "hacks" and crafting? Usually not. But, why? The process to scientific discovery can be difficult, atypical and even...crafty.". Check out our latest blog post, officially LIVE on the #RockEDU blog! (Link in bio!). This post is all about focusing on the PROCESS of #science and the degree of creativity afforded within #STEM.
