Paying It Forward: Students Profit from Educator Workshop

Last spring, students in Oregon engaged in school activities that helped
them understand the problem of marine debris and gave them the desire to
do something about it. Their teachers took part in a professional
development training last February at Hatfield Marine Science Center as
part of a partnership project to engage 4th-12th grade students in
marine debris efforts through a comprehensive Science, Technology,
Engineering, Arts, Mathematics and Social Studies (STEAMSS)-based marine
debris curriculum. Armed with lessons and resources, the teachers
returned to implement activities in their classrooms.
