The importance of insect education for all ages

Abstract

My experience included tabling and presenting at Bug Zoo and Entomology Club outreach events for the Fort Collins community, geared toward both children and adults, to examine how responses to insects varied. My involvement provided me with unique insights into the world of wildlife education and helped me develop valuable scientific communication skills. Along the way, I encountered numerous challenges, including obtaining IRB approval and a shortage of volunteers to assist me at various events.
