Hope Everyone is staying safe and healthy. Please bear with the long post. The American Meteorological Society has started its registration for next semester of courses. If you teach about the Atmosphere, Ocean, or Climate, this is a great way to boost your knowledge. If you are interested, please see below.
Calling all educators, both classroom and informal! Are you interested in adding to your curriculum to meet STEM standards? The American Meteorological Society (AMS) offers an on-line course for K-12 teachers to help you brush up on your atmospheric science. The course will increase your understanding of important earth science concepts while leveraging a dedicated mentoring team of education and scientific experts throughout the semester-long graduate courses. The mentor/coaching model allows you individual feedback on challenging material and the opportunity to leverage relationships for future collaboration. Participants may have optional in person and/or virtual field trips relevant to their studies, enhancing their course experience.
For additional information, please visit the DataStreme Course website
PLEASE NOTE: If you are interested in participating in a DataStreme course during the next academic semester (currently Spring 2022) and are not already in touch with one of our Mentor Teams, please fill out this Interest Form
Here is what you could achieve:
Successful participants will receive three (3) hours of graduate credit in science through California University of Pennsylvania. The main cost to you (besides the academic fee) is your time – time to complete the weekly investigations. This course will require 4 to 6 hours of focused work each week depending on your science background and experience.
Successful completion of two courses is the main requirement to becoming an AMS Certified Teacher.
Successful completion of 3 of the 5 AMS/Cal U Teacher PD opportunities earns participants an AMS DataStreme Certificate from CalU. A great credential!
All 3 DataStreme course credits (total of 9) can be applied to a Cal U Masters of Educational Leadership: Weather and Climatology creating a reduced cost path to a fully online Master’s degree.
