English Language Teachers (ELT): Under The Covers

How to be a teacher everyone remembers? You teach like Carl Sagan! Carl Sagan was an American astronomer, cosmologist, astrophysicist, and science popularizer. He was a professor of astronomy and space sciences and Director of the Laboratory for Planetary Studies at Cornell University. He is best known for his research in the field of planetary science, particularly the study of Venus and Mars, and for his popular science books and television series, such as "Cosmos: A Personal Voyage." He was a strong advocate for scientific skepticism, and he aimed to educate the public about the importance of science, critical thinking, and rationality. He was also a vocal advocate for the search for extraterrestrial intelligence and the exploration of outer space. Sagan's book "Cosmos" was a bestseller and the accompanying television series, which he hosted, was watched by over 500 million people in over 60 countries. The show covered a wide range of topics in science, from the origins of the universe to the history of life on Earth. The series was widely praised for its ability to make complex scientific concepts accessible to a general audience. We award Carl Sagan with the best teacher prize of being a 'Master Teacher' for the inspiration and motivation he brought to educating. #CarlSagan #CarlSaganCosmos #Sagan In the ELT (Education* Learning*Teaching): Under The Covers - teaching masters series, we take a look at notable educators who have influenced us and education in general.
