A little less than 1 hour until #ArthropodsGotTalent
19 students submitted their candidate species or groups, with the biggest category being interesting #behaviors (9/19)
I think some students are trying to play up the audience for votes w/references to popular films🤣

My #zoology Spring 16 class has spoken, and for coolest antipreatory defense in an #arthropod - the bomberdier #beetle takes the cake!
The #zoology students voted, and the most interesting #arthropod #parasite is ... the tongue-eating louse!
For coolest #behavior , the #zoology students were divided among candidates, but ultimately the pacific cleaner #shrimp is the #arthropod that won!
And the neatest #arthropod #predator of those submitted this year in #zoology was voted to be...the tiger #beetle !
I think I'll use this #ArthropodsGotTalent activity again in #zoology next spring, with some modifications.
Things that worked well:
- anonymous voting on favs via @Socrative
- giving students a PPT template to follow
- specifying a few categories their choices had to fit into

Modifications to #ArthropodsGotTalent will be aimed at accomplishing the following:
- getting more discussion/debate among students
- building better slides (...too many words!!!)
All in all, this was a fun #biodiversity activity & we all learned something new (myself included!)
