A3: This past May, I has the chance to go to Nepal with this crew from Global Teach Ag Network! I look forward to sharing from these #Photovoice research experiences with my future students. #FoodPrize22




Honored to receive this award from the Penn State Ag Council! Incredibly blessed to work with good people Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences and Global Teach Ag Network - my sincere thanks to Tracy Hoover, @FosterDanielD, and @GlobalMelanie for their continued support of my education and growth!

Today marked the first day of my #WFPFGOALS spring immersion trip to Minnesota! The PSU crew traveled to Alexandria, MN today and enjoyed seeing the snow. Great first day - looking forward to jumping into the classroom with Eric Sawatzke soon! World Food Prize Foundation Global Teach Ag Network


Good stuff here in Minnesota as we start our #WFPFGOALS teaching week! Day 1 focused on global citizenship and the United Nations SDGs. We encountered some snow and a 2 hr delay schedule but enjoyed jumping right in with the time we had. West Central Area has been good to us! Global Teach Ag Network


Time is flying at my #WFPFGOALS Spring Immersion! My students were excited to show off their new banners courtesy of Global Teach Ag Network World Food Prize Foundation and NIFA! The class enjoyed the Global Farmer Experience from Growing Hope Globally - highly recommend for all ag teachers!


Said goodbye to the #WFPFGOALS Spring Immersion and ended on a high note! We braved some snow for our travel home and I enjoyed seeing how they de-ice planes. Made sure to check out a few MN staples (including Nelson Bros Bakery) on our way out of the twin cities. Global Teach Ag Network



Last week, #psuaged24 enjoyed a week of meaningful learning experiences. We reflected upon how we care for agricultural education programs through an egg drop activity and got to watch Emily McGowan crush her presentation on teacher burnout! Looking forward to more to come!


Learned a lot from Paige Rohrbach today about opportunities for hunting/wildlife education in our future ag classrooms. Lots of great resources shared from Pennsylvania Game Commission ! #psuaged24



Enjoyed hearing from Mckenzie Mahler this morning about her experiences working with learners. Thank you Mckenzie for sharing your perspective along with helpful resources! Glad to be able to attend virtually as I make my way to the Big E in Massachusetts with PV Agriscience. #psuaged24



Happy #NationalTeachAgDay! This is an exciting day for all of us in the profession. Today I am grateful for my #psuaged24 cohort - next year at this time, it’s our turn to be behind the desk! #teachag National Association of Agricultural Educators


This weeks #psuaged24 presenter was Noah Phillips! Noah shared about his own experiences working on a PA dairy farm. Great example of the value of educators bringing real-life experiences into their classrooms!




Thanks to Celia Graef for sharing about the value of PA State Parks and their value to agricultural education! (Shoutout to my #psuaged24 peers who keep me included while I visited Athens FFA for the day!). Also enjoyed making kestrel boxes in our AEE 350 class this week.
