International Polar Year: Distant Events That Hit Close to Home<br>
<br>
------------- <br>
<br>
Join us for the 32nd annual Massachusetts Marine Educators conference
at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) as we investigate
The International Polar Year program. WHOI scientists Mary-Louise
Timmermans and Hal Caswell and MBL’s Ecosystem Center Co-Director, Hugh
Ducklow, connect the polar dots to Massachusetts through their research
in the Arctic and Antarctic. Learn about their work, their experiences
and how their findings might impact all of us. Teacher-led workshops
and tours of local facilities will wrap up a full day of marine science
and collegial interaction. Join colleagues who love the ocean as you
collect teaching resources, exchange ideas, and earn PDPs.<br>
<br>
COST: $55 - includes Cape Cod chowder (or BYOLunch / buy it at a local
restaurant) and teaching materials. Register by April 19 to save $10
(see attached flyer). We welcome first time new members at $35.<br>
