Teachable Moments for Great Lakes and Ocean Science
The Great Lakes are dynamic, and COSEE Great Lakes helps teachers keep their knowledge current. For each lake, every year until 2010, we will conduct two short workshops of ½ to one day. These “Teachable Moments” are designed to provide information on emerging issues or update public information on lake sciences. Frequently they will involve our informal education partners as hosts or presenters, and all will provide cutting-edge science from researchers or outreach professionals that are directly involved with the topics. In addition to the science presentations, teachers can interact with the scientists, and learn new skills or participate in curriculum activities transferable to their classrooms.
