K-12 teachers interested in infusing ocean science and technology into their classrooms or informal education programs are invited to follow the yellow brick road to Oceanology International North America (OINA) for a day-long professional development workshop. Organized by the Marine Advanced Technology Education (MATE) Center and Student Enabled Network of Sensors for the Environment using Innovative Technology (SENSE IT), this workshop will provide teachers with an overview of ocean science and technology fields then guide teachers through hands-on learning experiences focused on underwater robots and water quality sensors. Following a lunchtime speaker from National Geographic, teachers will be given a tour of the OINA exhibit hall, where they will have the opportunity to talk with several company representatives about their technologies and potential career opportunities with their organizations.
