Great Lakes Climate Change Online Workshop and Online Focus Group
Monday 7 – Friday 25 November 2011

This workshop is now finished. Over 200 people attended. Read the whole archive at the College of Exploration online campus.
The three main presentations are included below.

Here is the keynote presentation from Don Scavia, Ph.D.

The workshop produced a set of resources for educators on Great Lakes Climate Change compiled by Scott Carley Ph.D.
You can download the resources here. (PDF)

The third presentation at the workshop was on Great Lakes Literacy and Great Lakes Climate Literacy. This was in the form of an hour long webinar. The webinar recording is viewable by following this link. You will be asked to download the Elluminate/Blackboard Collaborate Player.

This is a National Science Foundation funded project awarded to Dr. Sandra Rutherford and a team coordinated through Eastern Michigan University to establish a Phase I Climate Change Education Partnership (CCEP) in the Great Lakes Region. The award began on September 15, 2010 and will run for two years.

The Climate Change Science and Education Systemic Network project is funded by the National Science Foundation. The current partners include Eastern Michigan University, NOAA’s Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab, University of Michigan, Michigan State University, Ashland University, the Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum, and the College of Exploration.

The goal of the NSF funded project is to take a comprehensive, regional focus linking the education, learning science, and climate science communities. We’ll be developing a plan that is responsive to Great Lakes stakeholder needs and which takes advantage of educational efforts going on within the Great Lakes region. As part of this project over the next two years (Phase 1), we’ll be developing a map, conducting community focus groups, writing white papers for both science and education, and developing a strategic plan to guide collaboration among numerous partners for a Phase 2 implementation of educational and climate change science efforts.
