UNLEASH THE POWER OF COMMUNITY SCIENCE IN YOUR CLASSROOM!

Join environmental educators Lexy Harquail and Kate Swartz at the River Institute and find out how your students can monitor water quality and changes to the environment in their community (or school yard!) using qualitative and quantitative data.

Do you want to harness the power of community science to engage your classroom in meaningful, hands-on projects? Look no further than Ocean School’s Community Science Professional Development Series!

Ocean School, along with our partners, invites educators like you to participate in our Community Science Professional Development Series. This initiative aims to equip teachers with the tools and resources necessary to inspire the next generation of environmental leaders.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Virtual information sessions: Register for a 30-minute virtual information session to learn about the program’s ins and outs.

  2. Request your classroom kit: Upon registration, request a free classroom kit filled with essential materials for your community science project.

  3. Conduct your project: Between September 2024 and March 2025, conduct a community science project with your students.

  4. Access support: Attend our office hours whenever you need assistance or guidance throughout your project implementation.
