If your students have questions for Judi and Wendy, they can send them to them online. All they need to do is to go to the article online (see the Futurum link below), scroll down to the end and type in the question(s). Judi and Wendy will reply! • The activity sheet provides ‘talking points’ (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy) to prompt students to reflect on Judi and Wendy’s research and challenges them to consider what we can learn from traditional Indigenous stories. • In the accompanying podcast, Judi discusses the importance of diversity and inclusion in science and education and shares her experiences as an elite athlete.
