Credits     

This Estuaries 101 Curriculum was produced for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS) by TERC, in close collaboration with NERRS Education Coordinators.

Specials thanks go to the TERC staff who took the lead in the design and drafting of the Estuaries 101 Curriculum: Dan Barstow, Teon Edwards, Jeff Lockwood, April Chuang, Brian Conroy, Deborah Munson, and Martos Hoffman. A wonderful group of NERRS Education Coordinators provided guidance, direction, valuable insights, resources and detailed reviews. This group of reserve educators include Sarah Davies, Pat Harcourt, Bart Merrick, Sarah McGuire, Brooke Vallaster, Anne Marie Tipton. Finally, we want to thank the teachers we worked with in focus groups and who responded to our needs assessment survey and feedback form for helping us ground our development efforts in the realities of schools and classrooms.
