The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Office of
Ocean Exploration and Research (OER) announces:

NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer: America's Ship for Ocean Exploration
Volume 2: How Do We Explore?
Professional Development for Educators of Grades 5-12

Saturday, October 25, 2014
8:00 am - 4:00 pm

In partnership with the University of Rhode Island's Inner Space Center
<http://www.innerspacecenter.org>  and hosted by URI Graduate School of
Oceanography, at the Coastal Institute Building Hazard Room,
Narragansett, Rhode Island. 

 

This professional development introduces educators to the Okeanos
Explorer Education Materials Collection, Volume 2: How Do We Explore?
Using the NOAA Ship of exploration Okeanos Explorer as the platform,
participants will be guided through lessons targeting innovative modern
ocean exploration strategies and the sophisticated instrumentation and
equipment used to explore our largely unknown world ocean. Lesson topics
include how targets are selected for exploration, mapping techniques,
water column exploration, remotely operated vehicles and telepresence
technology that enables access to real time ocean exploration.
Participants will learn how to use lessons to assist in meeting
performance expectations of the Next Generation Science Standards with
an eye on science as practice and the principles of engineering design.
A tour of the University of Rhode Island's Inner Space Center where ship
to shore communication operations take place will be included in the
day.

Pre-registration is required and space is limited. Each participant will
receive unique take-home materials, a NOAA Ocean Exploration Certificate
of Participation, a continental breakfast, and lunch. 
 
Please register <http://bit.ly/1oSwUAM>  by October 3, 2014, or call to
see if space is still available. Attached is the workshop flyer.
