Using MARGINS Data in the Classroom

A one-day workshop in conjunction with the GSA Southeastern section
meeting will be held on 11th March, 2009 in St. Petersburg, Florida.

The decade-long NSF MARGINS program has generated a wealth of data for use
in the undergraduate classroom.  A set of 16 MARGINS-based mini-lessons is
available on-line for evaluation and use.  The workshop will focus on the
evaluation of these existing lessons, and the development of new lessons
incorporating more MARGINS data and research.  We will discuss, evaluate,
polish and publish a larger and more diverse suite of teacher-ready
mini-lessons.

Important MARGINS tools and data resources, such as GeoMapApp, Virtual
Ocean, SedDB and PetDB, accessed through the MARGINS Data Portal
(http://www.marine-geo.org/portals/margins/), will be demonstrated at the
workshop.

Workshop attendance is limited to 20 participants. Partial funding to help
with the cost of attending will be provided on a first-come, first-serve
basis – apply early! Deadline for applications is Friday 23rd January
2009. Please use the GSA discount code when booking hotel accommodation
and travel - see GSA-SE URL below.

Before the workshop, all participants must either evaluate a current
mini-lesson or provide a draft of a new MARGINS-focused mini-lesson to be
completed at the workshop.
