"Dead Zone" activities published in education journal
An article published in The Science Teacher, the National Science Teacher Association's education journal, featured several classroom activities developed by our "Dead Zones" Scientist-Educator Partnership team. Jeremy Testa, a University of Maryland Horn Point Lab graduate student and Scientist Educator Partnership participant, took the lead on fine-tuning the activities for publication. The activities, which include classroom experiments and examination of real data, are based on research conducted through the Coastal Hypoxia Research Program (CHRP) and the Chesapeake Bay Environmental Observatory (CBEO). This publication is a great example of how the Scientist-Educator Partnership program can result in high-quality widely-disseminated broader impacts for scientists.
