Looking for interesting and practical activities for your science classroom that relate to real world problems? This workshop will provide resources to help your students understand our local marine environment and the pressures it faces. The workshop focusses on the impact of climate change and, more specifically, ocean acidification on the marine environment. The session is aimed at secondary teachers (biology, chemistry, general science) and educators with an interest in environmental issues. Some of the activities and experiments outlined in the resource book will be demonstrated. Free copies of “The Ocean of Tomorrow”, an
educational resource unit for secondary schools, will be distributed.
