IMO that goes beyond the scope of this forum. Its main purpose (and why iNat pays a monthly fee for it) is for discussion of iNaturalist related topics like bugs, feature requests, best practices, how-to questions, and situations that arise on iNat. The Nature Talk category actually wasn’t in the original beta version of the forum but was requested by users as a place for the community to discuss nature among other iNatters. I think that’s fine, but even then it creates more content, which is not directly related to iNat, that potentially requires moderation. Thankfully this community is great and not much moderation is needed, but I don’t think we need to expand the scope further.
There are other platforms like Reddit or Discord where, if anyone wants to, they could set up a nature Q+A section for students if that’s something they find fulfilling (and it totally can be!).
