Challenged the #HerpFall2019 class to a timed writing competition for bonus points (and bragging rights).

They had 12 minutes to work in teams and write a response to this prompt:

"Why should the average person care about #herps ?"

Then I had 2 anonymous folks pick the top 2

Here is one of the winners briefly explaining why #herps matter. (Yes, there is room for improvement, but I think they're pretty decent for being put on the spot!)

Here is the second winner explaining why #herps matter. This is my second year using this in-class activity and I really like listening to them brainstorm in their teams.
