Delightful Documentary Discovery
Free social opportunity for all students.
“Here’s how I watch nature documentaries with my friends and family: I entirely narrate over them. (My most patient family members will even allow me to pause the documentary to explain in detail what’s going on–my uncle and I once made it through about five minutes of a documentary in just half an hour! He asks excellent questions.)
In Delightful Documentary Discovery webinars, we’re much more efficient! We get together to watch a documentary, and students ask questions, answer questions, and make comments in the chat. We still get to make comments, but we also actually finish the documentary…!”

Join Prof. Emma and other documentary enthusiasts to watch some delightful documentaries together!
Prof. Emma selects older documentaries (typically nature documentaries) that are available for free on the Internet for students to watch as a group. Students ask questions, share comments, and issue corrections in the chat while the documentary is playing!
Not only do students learn a lot, it’s also a ton of fun! All current students are invited to join us.
