COSEE-OS Teams with the UNH Coastal Observing Center and GoMOOS to Host This Week's Ocean Observing Educator Workshop - 06.30.2006

The Coastal Ocean Observing Center and the Gulf of Maine Ocean Observing System (GoMOOS) have co-sponsored teacher workshops at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) since 2004. This year they teamed with COSEE-OS to produce Seasons in the Sea: Understanding Change in the Gulf of Maine through Buoys, Boats and Satellites, a workshop for elementary, middle, and high school science teachers.

Using computers and online data, the teachers learned how the Gulf of Maine works, how it changes, and how those changes are monitored. The workshop also combined educational pedagogy and cutting edge content to help teachers find new and effective ways to teach their students about the ocean.
