A great opportunity for teachers and students in grades 5-8!

Registration is open for the Mighty Mississippi Electronic Field Trip—a free, source-to-sea, web-based learning adventure that streams live November 14, 2018. The hour-long interactive television program, produced by PBS affiliate WYES New Orleans in collaboration with Hamline University’s Center for Global Environmental Education, features field segments with content experts (including CGEE’s John Shepard) interviewed by student reporters at Lake Itasca, the Twin Cities, and multiple points downstream.

CGEE’s fully revised Waters to the Sea®: Mississippi Adventure web-based, NGSS-aligned, learning program serves as a companion for the Electronic Field Trip. This rich multimedia learning resource includes dozens of short videos, immersive 360-VR panoramas, and interactive modules on the following topics: Earth Science, Life Science, History/Geography, Arts & Culture, and Current Affairs.
