Interested in incorporating more local environmental science issues and problem-based learning into the classroom? Join East Coast MARE for a training on spatial literacy. In the unit, students are exposed to a problem-based Human Impact adventure in which they practice spatial literacy skills and make informed decisions about development around the Barnegat Bay. While doing this, they also learn a great deal about the bay ecosystem, seagrass biology, satellite imagery, and the processes of science and management. Learn about what this unit can offer, explore the support features for teachers and students, and meet, hear, and work with scientists involved in creating the unit in the field.
