Everybody is born a scientist, Tim Stephenson says. In his work as a teacher, he shapes science teaching to encourage students to engage in science 24 hours a day. At the same time, he is a proponent of information and communications technologies, and was writing about their benefits in the early 1990s. That writing piece evolved into his book Beyond the Classroom, a teaching manifesto written to encourage teachers and amplify the teaching profession
Tim seeks to destroy the idea that science is only for “the smartest of the smart” by bringing science to life through real-life stories that involve science, discussing rather than lecturing, and teaching everyone that they can and should get involved with science, since it touches every aspect of life.
Tim hosts a podcast called Science 360 and publishes videos to help teachers with content when teaching about space and the environment. The YouTube channel is Science 360-Beyond the Sky.
