Dear Educators,
Looking to combine math and science in the classroom? Here's an 
opportunity to do just that, while participating in ongoing 
oceanographic research:


*Topics in Oceanography*

*Professional Development Workshops for Educators*

Monday, July 25, 2011, 9:30am-3pm, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 
Woods Hole, MA

"HabCam: using advanced imaging technology to study New England seafloor 
ecology"An opportunity to participate in current and ongoing 
oceanographic research


  Presenters:

- Scott Gallager and Amber York, Biology Department, Woods Hole 
Oceanographic Institution

-  Karen Bolles, Arnie's Fisheries

- See the /_HabCam (habitat camera)_/ and computer technology that are 
providing scientists with current information about the New England 
coastal ocean floor and how this ecosystem is changing over time.

- Find out how citizens and classrooms can participate in an exciting 
scientific image analysis project, and learn how to get started. Become 
familiar with the HabCam web site and how to use it with your class.

- Participants will have hands-on individual instruction in how to use 
and analyze images collected over time of seafloor organisms, 
biodiversity, and invasive species, and find out how to carry the 
project forward into the school year.


Registration: $50, breakfast and lunch included. Please include your 
contact information, so we can send directions to the workshop site.
