Session Description

Students are frequently encouraged to model the work of scientists in our classrooms. The goal of this session is to go beyond that and give teachers the tools that will enable students to work as scientists. For students who are passionate about ecology, astronomy, environmental studies or even drawing, some projects will engage all students, as well as helpful tips to implement projects even when time is limited.
