Middle school students get a visit from Ardi

Posted on October 15, 2009 by Jasmine Davis





Okay, so the oldest known skeleton didn’t actually visit the Ensworth campus today! However, the middle school students did have the privilege to skype (video conference) with Dr. Tim White, project co-director and paleontologist Professor of the Human Evolution Research Center at the University of California Berkeley, and one of the members of the team that discovered Ardi. Ardi is a 4.4 million year old female partial skeleton discovered in the Ethiopian desert on a investigation that started 17 years ago. After a brief introduction from Dr. White on Ardi, a select number of students were invited to ask Dr. White questions. Walking up to the computer screen, the students were given the opportunity to engage in a conversation with Dr. White as he answered the questions most interesting to them. ” What made you become a scientist?” asked Eden Chaberski. Another student wondered, “What do you think Ardi sounded like?”. The students listened intently as Dr. White described what he looks for in a fossil site, what you can learn from studying fossils, and what he learned about human development through his discovery of Ardi. Thanks to Skype and Dr. White, the students were able to connect what they learn in the classroom to actual current events that are shaping science today.

    Hello there! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa? My blog discusses a lot of the same topics as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!

    My coder is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on numerous websites for about a year and am anxious
    about switching to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net.
    Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress
    posts into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
