FAIRBANKS, Alaska (AP) - School teachers from across Alaska are getting lessons this month at the University of Alaska Fairbanks so they can more effectively teach their students back home about climate change.
Sixty teachers are scheduled to participate in this year's Science Teacher Education Program hosted by the Geophysical Institute at the university. During the program's two-week sessions, teachers learn from scientists and develop lesson plans together.
"The plan is to have teachers better prepared to teach science," Mary Martin, the program's coordinator said. "This year it's about scientists teaching about global climate change."
