The Big Horn Basin Foundation offers an educational program called "Skype In The Classroom" which classrooms all over the world have utilized. This program allows teachers to connect with the Big Horn Basin Foundation via Skype where students are able to ask a Paleontologist questions in a more one on one setting. The students are also able to see dinosaur skeletons via Skype during a "virtual tour" of the Wyoming Dinosaur Center.

~Students loved the session you have provided. Your session was not only informative, but full of awesome visuals we all appreciated. Parents have informed us, students came home excited about their Skype session and their excitement prompted them to do some online research, as a family, in their spare time. Thank you for your time and patience, meant to world to us. Nora a.k.a. Madame Diaz  Ajax, Ontario

~This was more than a Skype session. It was a virtual field trip!  Our students were so excited to take a virtual tour of the museum. There were lots of "oohs" and "aahs" as Jess showed them the fossil exhibits. She was very knowledgable and answered all of their questions in a way that elementary students could easily understand. Jennifer Roberson China Grove, North Carolina
