Educational resource links
- Links to web pages presented by other participants in this workshop:
Jean Morrill's site on Climate, Climate Change, and Climate Education which includes both links for her undergraduate climate modeling module, and as a source/link sheet for K-12 science teachers. Jean led Module 3 on climate change causes and effects.
- Jim Washburne's Educational Links to programs and activites of particular interest to K-14 environmental education students and teachers -- this has a lot of good info and links. Jim lead Module 4 on water resources and climate.
- AMS Education Programs, as well as awards, scholarships, and student information; in particular, Project Atmosphere supports educational resource agents, and the development of instructional materials.
NOAA Year of the Ocean Kids and Teachers Resources mostly for junior high and younger students
- Globe ProgramStudents and teachers from over 4000 schools in over 55 countries are working with research scientists to learn more about our planet. The Globe Teacher's Guide has extensive references and projects for use by teachers.
- Educational Products and Tools links from the NOAA Seasonal-to-Interannual Predictions Home page
- Educational links from the NOAA El Nino homepage
- NASA's educational resources page
- Educational resources from the USCCRP and its its Global Change Data and Information System educational resources .
- UCAR educational resourcesWeather and climate education and outreach resources at the University Consortium for Atmospheric Research and and links to programs at its member institutions; includes K-12, undergrad, and public education.
- NSF Teacher Resources, mostly links to other sites.
- EPA's "Teachers lounge" and "student center"
- USGS Water Resources Education Initiative (WREI) is an educational outreach program designed to stimulate interest in fresh water resources for students and educators in grades K-12. Other USGS educational sites are also linked.
- The Instructional Resource Technology Center at the Univ of Colorado was set up to assist faculty in using internet resources in teaching; some basic information is on-line. You might want to look at this site, and also see if a university near you has a similar center.
- Technology in Education workshop at the NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental lab and a presentation they did for the American Society for Limnology and Oceanography (1994?) workshop on Use of Emerging Technologies in Undergraduate Aquatic Science Education
- Bringing Research into the Classroom a web-based resentation by Mark Williams of the Univ of Colorado, on using the web to improve undergraduate research experiences
