The exact terminology is used in individual activities through all three levels, as well as the group activity guide. This curriculum provides for a great deal of interaction between the helper and the youth in planning, implementing and evaluating the learning. The options for using the Insectaganze curriculum could be applied to a variety of delivery modes dependent on the creativity of the leader or teacher. Primarily, these materials are designed to be used by one participant at a time, with the aid of an adult helper. There are several different kinds of educational experiences interwoven through the Insectaganze materials.
Participants can draw, match, design, label, observe, compose, chart, create, read, and study.
They can also touch, play, build, explore, collect, compete, trap, test, compare, find, rear, manipulate, form, detect, and involve. It appears to this reviewer that the Insectaganze materials are designed for higher intellectual level participants. There are three different levels of these entomology activity guides, and they do develop from simple to more complex. This material does allow for varying participant experience levels, but the starting point is probably at a higher level than in most projects, and might exclude the youth who has limited learning skills. There needs to be more demonstrations and activities like Big Mouth Parts, Level 1, for the beginner learner.
