Final presentations PhytoRCLASS pilot 2021 – day 4! (See links)
Remember these studies were done in one week! As such, materials were often found around the house and replication, etc. were barriers, but these constraints were reported. The point is to have things be accessible for a wide variety of education level (K-12, post-secondary) and backgrounds, as well as equitable and inclusive. The goal was also to make material that others can use for free to learn about the phytobiome and the processes of science. The week before was preparation. This two-week (two asynchronous, two synchronous sessions) summer 2021 pilot helped the team decide that a three week PhytoRCLASS in future would be great. With one week for piloting and developing an idea beyond the question brought in (the session started with a question before the first session), and two weeks for research followed by presentations.
