2016 Authentic Research Experience for Teachers

Monday, June 6, 2016 - 8:00am - Thursday, June 9, 2016 - 5:00pm
 
Oklahoma secondary science teachers of grades 6-12 are invited to apply for this year’s Authentic Research Experience for Teachers (ARET) summer four-day workshop, where they will study environments and ecosystems in SE Oklahoma. During the four-day experience teachers will actively participate in scientific field research as well as work closely with science curriculum specialists to translate their research into classroom-ready learning experiences for their students. This workshop includes follow-up meetings with science curriculum specialists during the fall semester to assist in lesson reflection.

ARET will be held June 6-9, 2016 at the Kiamichi Forest Research Center near Idabel. Lodging, travel, breakfast and lunch, a stipend, and support for lesson materials will be provided for the selected teachers.
