ED44B:
Innovations in Environmental and Ocean Science Education II Posters


Session ID#: 9468

Session Description:
Environmental and ocean science incorporates the life sciences, the physical sciences, and the Earth sciences.  Traditionally, it has been taught in disciplinary and multi-disciplinary curricula, but new approaches have relied on hands-on learning, project-based learning, instructional technology, flipped classrooms, and Earth system science approaches. Innovative ideas are embedded in a variety of marine, environmental, and natural science programs, formal courses, and other activities and delivered by a great diversity of instructor. This session welcomes innovative approaches to teaching environmental and/or ocean sciences in grades 5-20 (middle school, high school, community college, university, graduate school).  An emphasis will be placed on evidence for effective teaching and learning.
