- TeacherHi, we're ready to start.
- Bugscope TeamWelcome to Bugscope!
- Bugscope Teamhi! let us know when you have any questions
- Bugscope Teamyou have the ability to drive the microscope -- change mag, focus, control the contrast and brightness; and also, to choose from among the presets on the lefthand screen -- the screen you access by clicking on the lefthand arrow
- Bugscope Teamin addition, you can click on the image itself, and the 'scope will center the image where you clicked
- Bugscope Teamlike this...
- Bugscope TeamHello Rich! Welcome to Bugscope!
- Bugscope Teamso as Cate said, please let us know when you have questions about anything at all.
- TeacherI just showed the kids how to log on. They're typing in the URL and putting in their names.
- StudentWhat is that giant stick
- StudentHI
- Studenthi
- Bugscope Teamwe are looking at a leafhopper right now
- Studenthi
- 11:29 am
- StudentSo now what?
Bugscope Teamreally, all you need to do is ask us questions about what might interest you
- Bugscope Teamthe round bumps are the individual ommatidia on the compound eye
- StudentWhat's a leafhopper?
- Studentit looks like a leaf
- Studentsorry people of my nickname
- Bugscope Teamthe white things all over are brochosomes, which are nanoparticles only leafhoppers produce
- StudentHUH?
- Studentcool
- StudentIs it green
- StudentIs that a leaf?

Bugscope Teamsometimes they are green, and sometimes brown
- StudentBrochosomes? Nanoparticles?
Bugscope Teamyes they are!
- Studentis that a statue?
- Studentleafhopper?
- Studentwhat's this?
Bugscope Teamthis is the head of the leafhopper. It is a bit conical in shape

- Studenthow small are they supposed to be?
- Student what?\

Bugscope Teamin a way it is supposed to
- StudentIt looks like one
- StudentI agree with Amanda
- StudentWhat's the actual size?
Bugscope Teamlook at the micron bar -- 500 microns, or micrometers, is half a millimeter
- StudentIt looks like a sting ray.
- StudentIs this stone or is it real?
Bugscope Teamit's real
- Studentwhat are those
- Studenthow are you doing?
- Studentwhy does it look like a monster?
Bugscope Teamthat is the cool part, but I think they are cute
