-      A major goal of scientific research is to produce accurate and reproducible estimates of animal populations. In this activity, students learn about a method for surveying wild populations of penguins in remote locations in Antartica. They have an opportunity to try out the method by counting colonies of stuffed animals using clickers. Each student counts an individual colony multiple times to produce as accurate of an estimate as possible, accounting for any possible errors they’ve made or penguins they didn’t see the first time around.

       Students learn why surveying animal populations is important for scientific research and what kinds of information can be obtained. Students also learn about the difficulties of producing population estimates through statistical concepts, repeated surveys, and more.

-    <p> Counting butterflies is an important aspect of insect conservation programs that volunteer scientists from the public often perform. In this interactive outreach activity, middle school students search for and count paper butterflies that have been placed around the room. They report their counts to the organizers, which feed the estimates into a statisical model. Students watch the model update with the newest data point!

-     At our table students are provided with a brief demonstration on how scientists use butterfly counts to study butterfly populations and inform conservation. Students also learn about statistical uncertainty and how increasing the sample size leads to more precise estimates of the butterfly population. The activity can be completed in 3-5 minutes. Participants receive a small insect sticker to take home.
