[All-postdocs] There's A Scientist in My Classroom! Event Registration

[Megan May]

Hi JP and Postdocs,  

Do you want to complete outreach in schools this year?  Are you interested in meeting with local teachers?  Would you like to create exciting lessons about science for K-12 students? 

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you should attend the “There’s A Scientist in My Classroom” Event at WHOI.  
Where/When: The workshop will take place on October 22, 2015 (10 AM- 2 PM) at Clark Lab on the Quisset campus of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. 

What: Following the format of previous meetings at MIT in Cambridge, MA, this workshop will provide a space for K-12 teachers from the Falmouth (and surrounding) area to meet graduate students and scientists from the Woods Hole and discuss opportunities for collaboration in the classroom. 

The goals of the workshop are:

            1. to create partnerships between Falmouth-area teachers and scientists from Woods Hole 

            2. to provide an opportunity for teachers to enrich their science classes through visits by scientists from Woods Hole

            3. to offer a chance for scientists to enhance their skills in communication through outreach to classrooms in the Falmouth area

The agenda will include:

1. group discussions 

2. small presentations on effective classroom visits, teacher-scientist partnerships, and tailoring outreach to Massachusetts state science standards.

3. time for networking and lunch
