I wanted to learn more about the reproductive system of the Indiana Bat and wondered if it is possible for them to have twins. So far I have not heard back but I am hopeful that I will learn more by the end of this class.
Even though it takes a while to hear back from the scientists, I think this tool would be great to teach my students. My students are so curious and ask me everything under the sun. Sometimes they will even email me at all hours of the night saying, "I couldn't sleep because I was thinking about..." and actually expect me to answer them immediately! (They are so funny) Now any time they have a question they can pose it to an actual scientist and share the answer with the class. The only down fall is that by the time they hear back they might not be interested in the topic anymore.
Sometimes the biggest mistakes turn out to be the greatest inventions!
