GLOBE Teacher Training Workshop - 26-31 July 2018

Northwest Minnesota teachers are invited to attend UND’s third-annual Teacher Training Workshop in GLOBE (Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment).  Teachers will learn how to use GLOBE’s hands-on resources in classroom science investigations involving the earth system.  This year’s focus will be on two of the GLOBE modules: atmosphere and plant life.  Teachers will confidently leave the workshop with lesson plans in-hand and access to an international network of collaborative GLOBE teachers and scientists.
