EarthStorm Workshop for Teachers in July
The Southern Great Plains (SGP) Educational Outreach Program is hosting an EarthStorm Weather Institute for Teachers on July 12-15, 2004, at the University of Oklahoma’s Sarkeys Energy Center in Norman. In the EarthStorm Weather Institute, meteorologists from the Norman area and educators from Kansas and Oklahoma will share ideas and resources for teaching meteorological concepts and will establish long-term associations supporting science education. This free four-day workshop will give K-12 teachers an opportunity to investigate weather and improve their skills in preparing students to design and implement science fair projects. More information is online (http://k12.ocs.ou.edu/teachers/workshops/default.html).
The SGP Educational Outreach Program is administered by and in partnership with the Oklahoma Climate Survey, the University of Oklahoma, and the Oklahoma Mesonet.
