Learn How to MacroBlitz
Interested in learning how to MacroBlitz? We have the resources!
Join the Google Classroom
We have everything you need - step by step - to learn how to find and take photos of aquatic macroinvertebrates and upload to them iNaturalist in our Google classroom. You can join using a personal gmail account (Google education and nonprofit workspace emails are not compatible) using this invitation link. There you will be able to view resources and trainings, connect with other MacroBlitzers, ask questions, share your ideas and more. Join today!
And yes, you must use a personal gmail or an enterprise workspace email due to cross-domain class membership requirements. MacroBlitz is Google Workspace Starter domain (we are small, spunky, and just-enough-funded) and our classroom is compatible with only certain types of Google domains. If you are outside the Google environment, you can link an existing email to a Google account or set up a Google account, making sure to forward notifications to your regular email.
FYI educators: the livestream slide decks are available in the Google classroom for you to download and use with your learners. Feel free to adapt to meet your educational needs.
YouTube Channel
We put the livestreams of our trainings on YouTube. Check out our How to MacroBlitz - Training Videos Playlist. Just a heads up, that we don't have the bandwidth to monitor all questions or comments and respond in YouTube.
