Recordings can be made and distributed to registered students if they miss a class. \n\n\n\nCourse Schedule \n\n\n\nIntroduction to Freshwater Science \n\n\n\nFebruary 6 – Jen Merrill\, Ph.D. Freshwater systems are dynamic\, some are ephemeral\, and many are threatened by pollution and development. Let’s explore the environmental context for the science of freshwater systems.  \n\n\n\nChemistry of Freshwater Streams \n\n\n\nFebruary 13 – Diana Oviedo Vargas\, Ph.D. What does the chemistry of the water tell us about its source\, supply\, and changes over time?  \n\n\n\nWho Lives Here? \n\n\n\nFebruary 20 – Jinjun Kan\, Ph.D. From microbes to fish\, freshwater inhabitants are unique in their life histories and adaptations.  \n\n\n\nMayflies: Canaries in Coal Mines\n\n\n\nFebruary 27 – John Jackson\, Ph.D. What makes these aquatic insects (macroinvertebrates) indicator species when things go wrong? What do they tell us about the health of our fresh water?  \n\n\n\nWatersheds: Fish Grow on Trees\n\n\n\nMarch 5 – Melinda Daniels\, Ph.D. Why are streams influenced by their surroundings and what does that mean for our land use? \n\n\n\nOptional Tour of Stroud Water Research Center\n\n\n\nMarch 12\, from 9 to 11:30 a.m.

The Stroud Center’s emphasis on freshwater science starts in the headwaters and extends downstream toward the coast. Much of DENIN’s research focuses on coastal systems\, extending from the ocean and estuaries to marshes and tidal streams that are fed by upland freshwater. Together we work to understand and protect our water quality and fragile aquatic ecosystems.

SUMMARY:Expanding Meaningful Environmental and Watershed Literacy With Geospatial Technology Tools and Practice
DESCRIPTION:What: Professional development for K–12 educators in Pennsylvania.\n\n\n\nWhen: 5–7:30 p.m. on Thursdays\, September 28; October 5\, 12\, 19\, 26; and November 2\, and a final meeting on Thursday\, November 16 from 5–8 p.m.\n\n\n\nWhere: Online.\n\n\n\nCost: Free. Participants may be eligible to receive a stipend and up to 30 hours of Act 48.\n\nAll assignments and surveys\, with the exception of the post-implementation survey\, must be submitted by November 22\, 2023 to be eligible for stipend payment. The post-implementation survey must be completed before distribution of Act 48 hours.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration closes on Friday\, September 8\, 2023. Enrollment will be offered on a first-come\, first-served basis; space is limited. Confirmation\, prerequisite assignments\, and course site login information will be sent on or before September 16\, 2023. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Now\n\n\n\n\nHave you been searching for the missing link that helps bridge the gap between delivering environmental content and developing environmental literacy? Do you want to help your students understand their connections to their local environment but are limited by established curriculum sequences? Have COVID-19 restrictions on classroom and lab experiences limited your ability to design real-world STEM explorations using the environment as an integrative concept? If you answered yes to any of these questions\, this is the professional development (PD) opportunity for you! \n\n\n\nUsing geographic information systems (GIS) and geospatial technologies to explore complex interdisciplinary phenomena\, such as environmental issues\, has been demonstrated as a highly effective method for teachers and students to better understand connections within the natural world at all grade levels. \n\n\n\nConnecting spatial representation and explorations to local field-based inquiry further improves understanding in a tangible way while creating a sense of place and connection to the issue. Yet\, knowing which GIS tools to use and how to use them to enhance a new existing curriculum can initially be quite daunting to educators.  \n\n\n\nIn this PD experience\, you will learn to:  \n\n\n\n\nIdentify which GIS tools to use in an environmental or watershed literacy instructional unit that will be appropriate for your instructional grade level.\n\n\n\nIntegrate and adapt these tools into your classroom instruction.\n\n\n\nShare how GIS tools can be used to identify environmental or environmental justice issues within your district’s watershed boundaries.\n\n\n\nInvestigate environmental or environmental justice issues within and outside your watershed boundaries.\n\n\n\nIdentify which classroom practices and GIS tools can be used for both place-based learning and expansion into the regional watershed and environmental literacy inquiries.\n\n\n\n\nProgram Details\n\n\n\nWe are seeking K–12 educators in Pennsylvania to participate in an innovative professional development series designed to enhance educators’ understanding and implementation of GIS tools\, watershed inquiry\, and environmental literacy in their classroom practices. \n\n\n\nThe PD structure includes 15 hours of synchronous instruction and 15–30 hours of asynchronous assignments. Participants are required to do the following to be eligible for the stipend and the full allotment of Act 48 credit hours: \n\n\n\n\nComplete the entire professional development sequence. \n\n\n\nComplete and submit all course assignments.\n\n\n\nComplete the pre-course\, post-course\, and post-classroom implementation surveys.\n\n\n\nDesign and implement an inquiry-based unit plan which utilizes select GIS tools within the first eight weeks of the 2023–2024 school year.\n\n\n\n\nQuestions? Contact Tamara Peffer\, tpeffer@pa.gov\, 717-772-0842.

SUMMARY:[In-Person Educator Workshop] Tidal Wetlands in the Face of Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:When: Friday\, April 14\, 2023\, 9 a.m.–3 p.m.\n\n\n\nWhere: John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum\, Philadelphia\, PA (map below)\n\n\n\nAudience: This workshop is open to homeschool providers\, classroom teachers\, and non-formal environmental educators. Six hours of Act 48 are available for Pennsylvania Certified Teachers. A certificate of participation will be provided for teachers/participants outside of Pennsylvania.\n\n\n\nCost: Free. Seats are limited and registration is required. The school districts of the first 10 teachers who register can be reimbursed for substitute teacher costs.\n\n\n\nLunch: Provided thanks to our NSF project funding! See registration to note any dietary preferences.\n\n\n\n\nRegistration has closed. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a day at John Heinz Wildlife Refuge\, engaging side by side with scientists and educators from Stroud Water Research Center\, John Heinz\, and ShoreRivers as we embark on a hands-on journey exploring the impact of climate change on tidal wetlands. \n\n\n\nBonus: Participants get their very own foldscope to use forever\, with an opportunity for one teacher to be selected for a continued partnership to work with your school and us on these important topics in the upcoming 2023–2024 school year (funding is available)! \n\n\n\nTidal wetlands\, from salt marshes to cypress swamps\, are not just a scenic backdrop for coastal lifestyles. These vital ecosystems are home to diverse animal and plant communities\, provide valuable outdoor experiences for people\, and link biogeochemical cycles occurring in watersheds and their estuaries. Tidal wetlands are also shifting and changing as rising sea level pushes inland\, in some places disappearing under the tide forever or migrating upslope with altered plant communities. While the recent acceleration of sea level rise is driven by global warming\, the response of tidal wetlands is governed by plant physiology\, hydrodynamics\, and sediment supply. \n\n\n\nMeasuring the sand and mud carried by rivers and delivered to tidal wetlands is more complicated than it might seem. Scientists are using high-tech methods borrowed from the biotech sector to track where sediment comes from over different timescales to help predict how tidal wetlands in different places will respond to sea level rise. \n\n\n\nBut not everyone needs to use these tools to appreciate the balancing act playing out in tidal wetlands across the coast! A few simple lessons can help people understand these processes and their implications for our watersheds and communities and how we can live sustainably on our coasts. \n\n\n\nWorkshop Objectives\n\n\n\n\nEngage with scientists to learn about the importance of estuaries and how climate change impacts them (and us!)\n\n\n\nExplore an estuary\, collecting and analyzing water and soil samples with activities you can replicate with students.\n\n\n\nCollaboratively model how to incorporate these topics into issue investigations and phenomena-based learning curricula.\n\n\n\n\nQuestions? Please contact Tara Muenz. \n\n\n\n\n\nThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences under Grant No. 2049073.
