Adventures of a Scientist in the K-12 Classroom

Hosted by Dr. Lin Chambers, NASA Scientist  

After completing her PhD in 1991, "so she would never have to go to school again", Lin Chambers stepped back into a classroom in January 1997 to talk with middle school kids about a NASA citizen science project.  Since then Lin has spoken with students from kindergarden through high school, in multiple states and on three continents, in two and a half languages, in person and through virtual connections.  Despite this experience, each visit to a classroom is a new adventure.  Lin will share some lessons learned from her experiences that may benefit other scientists contemplating a return to the classroom.

Dr. Lin Chambers is a physical scientist in the Science Directorate at the NASA Langley Research Center.  She leads the MY NASA DATA project to make real NASA Earth-observing data accessible to the K-12 and citizen science communities.  Currently she serves as the Project Scientist for the NASA Innovations in Climate Education project.
