[03/24/08] The 2008 Teaching Science by Ocean Inquiry workshop will be held July 21-25, 2008 at the Darling Marine Center in Walpole, ME. The goals of this workshop are to a) introduce teachers to ocean and climate related processes that can be used as a vehicle to teach general physical concepts and b) develop a network between teachers, scientists and experts in education. This workshop is intended for high school and middle school teachers who teach physics, chemistry, physical science, and/or earth sciences.

[02/21/08] New abstracts added...

[10/04/07] See our MISC page for photos and movies, and our education page for a new Hands-On Oceanography article on diffusion by Lee, Emmanuel, and Jim.
