This program’s design will cover the Advanced Placement, NGSS and MA State
Frameworks dealing with the interactions and cross connections of the
biogeochemical nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon cycles.  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.
