Event Details
Join us for a day of classroom and field learning focused on the topic of Watershed Monitoring and Habitat Restoration, and engage in Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences (MWEEs) with your students! Participants will engage in hands-on activities from StreamWebs and Oregon Coast Education Program, and explore locally-available educational materials that can be checked out and used with students. The resources and best practices we share will support teachers to design and implement a Project Based Learning (PBL) unit this spring. Students will be invited to a Student Watershed Symposium in late Spring to share their projects with their peers and community. This free workshop is designed for formal and informal educators of students in Grade 6-12. Lunch will be provided. Please note that part of the day will be spent outdoors, so be sure to dress for the weather. Benefits to Workshop Participants $100 stipend for attending the workshop Connections to resources (curriculum, people, materials) that support PBL planning and implementation Engage in classroom and field activities that model MWEEs and support PBL Time to create an implementation plan Post-Workshop Opportunities Follow up 1-hour webinar (TBD) Access to field trip funds for Spring 2018 (additional requirements) Invitation to the Student Watershed Symposium Register by December 22.
