My name is Joe Grabowski, I'm an intermediate science and math teacher in Guelph, Ontario. In 2007, I spent a year living in Wollongong, Australia.
I recently founded a nonprofit called Exploring by the Seat of Your Pants, bringing science, adventure and conservation into classrooms across North America through guest speakers and virtual field trips. Explroing by the Seat of Your Pants was just awarded the grand prize of 100k in the CST Inspired Minds Learning Project, a cross Canada search for innovative learning projects. http://www.exploringbytheseat.com
This year I was named a Grosvenor Teacher Fellow and will be heading to the Galapagos in August for a 10 day expedition with National Geographic and Lindblad Expeditions. I've recently started hosting National Geographic Education Google Hangouts with various National Geographic Explorers.
I'm an avid scuba diver, cold or warm, fresh or salt, it doesn't matter. I've had the privilage of diving in places like Australia, Fiji, Bimini, Cozumel, the Great Lakes and North Carolina. I also have the privilage of working with an amazing conservation group called Sharks4Kids, creating a new generation of shark and ocean advocates.
