I always like to put up an interesting photo for first class sessions. This is it for Fall 2009 semester. Open ended questions revolve around the science such as how does this illustrate properties of water? Surface tension of water? How is the fish using water to it's (the fishes) advantage? Is this a learned behavior or innate behavior? WHY? Why are the fins red? Why is it looking up out of the water? Is it coming up for air? WHY? HOW DO YOU KNOW?
And then the personal...how will we be feeling like this fish in a few weeks? What can we DO to prepare?
Thanks to my colleague and avid fly-fisherman Jonas Magnusson M.D. for sending me the pic.
