Humorous Science - Don't Make Me Laugh by Michael DiSpezio

In this stand-up comedy performance, DiSpezio demonstrates how to effectively integrate humor into your science curriculum without compromising validity. Using classic and original examples of science humor, DiSpezio not only entertains attendees, but guides them into exploiting this often overlooked classroom tool. Be prepared to smile. 

Attendees will be motivated to:

  • Strengthen their professional learning communities around science and math
  • Integrate math and science concepts into all content areas
  • Lead active in-depth learning for understanding
  • Effectively use assessment data to better inform teaching decisions
  • Develop communication strategies and strengthen collaboration within and between teams
