Participants will learn about current research on connections between biogeochemical cycles and the relevance to the local Buzzards Bay Ecosystem and global marine systems. The material will align best with AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and AP Environmental, however, all high school Biology and Marine Science teachers will find valuable and relevant material for their courses as well. The program assessments will include; both pre and post tests and a class lesson share. Participants will earn 10 PDP’s upon completion of the full program.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">Facilitators</span><span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">:</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-style:italic;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">Ocean Academy* Co-Director’s</span></p><ul style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><li dir="ltr" style="margin-left:24px;list-style-type:disc;font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;background-color:transparent"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:15px;font-style:italic;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">Annette Brickley</span></p></li><li dir="ltr" style="margin-left:24px;list-style-type:disc;font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;background-color:transparent"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:15px;font-style:italic;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">David Welty, PhD. </span></p></li></ul><br><p dir="ltr" style="text-align:left;line-height:1;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,112,192);font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">ENROLLMENT LIMITED TO 20 TEACHERS</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align:left;line-height:1;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,112,192);font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent"><br></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align:left;line-height:1;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt"><span style="font-size:17px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:bold;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent">There is no cost for this workshop.
