It was very special to be in the room when the announcement of planet Kepler 10b (an estimated 1.4 X the size of the Earth) was discovered. I turned to my student Inga and asked, "How does it feel to be one of the first people on planet Earth to know about this discovery?" She replied, "I never thought of it like that ... it's pretty cool."
I never met a scientist who did not want to discuss their work.
[...]It seems that becoming empowered in the language and the nature of inquiry and investigation was also life changing for our teacher participants.
