What's New?
Ocean Literacy Summit
The New England Ocean Science Education Collaborative (NEOSEC) hosted more than 100 ocean scientists, science writers, educators and their administrators, and policymakers at Boston University for the Second Ocean Literacy Summit, November 7, 2008. A collaboration among a range of institutions from across the region, NEOSEC focused on the connection between the ocean and climate (Principle #3) for the 2008 Summit. Proceedings are available on the NEOSEC website . Curious about the first Ocean Literacy Summit, which introduced the OL Principles? Visit online.
Telling Your Story Workshop: Take it home!
COSEE NE has held its final Telling Your Story workshop, which brought together researchers and educators at the Massachusett Institute of Technology as part of the Year of Science. The workshop can live on at your institution, however! Visit the TYS Resource Page for all the materials you'll need to facilitate your own training. (A Facilitators' Handbook will be available in June 2009.)
