Since 1996, a continuing education course has been offered to teachers in conjunction with Science for Alaska. Current Topics in the Natural Sciences for Educators, ED F593, will be offered in 2012 through the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Teachers anywhere in Alaska can earn credits upon completion of the course.

On each Tuesday evening, half an hour prior to our lectures, we will be hosting educational demonstrations that provide introductory information and a hands-on activity related to that night's presentation.

Demonstrations are open to attendees of all ages, but are especially fun for K-12 students. Please join us in our creative science projects and stay for the lectures at 7 p.m.

For more information about a particular activity, please contact the Education Outreach Office at the Geophysical Institute, 907-474-7558.
