Schoolyard Ecology Winter Data Workshop Registration Now Open!
Each year, Harvard Forest's Schoolyard Ecology Program hosts a Winter Data Workshop to provide support to instructors participating in the program. This year, two workshop options will be offered! Because of winter weather and the large number of Eastern Massachusetts teachers, a second data workshop will be held in Cambridge at Harvard's Natural History Museum.
Option 1: Full Data Workshop in Petersham
Tuesday, January 28th, 2025-9 am - 3:30 pm
This is the Traditional Data Workshop at the Harvard Forest, Petersham, MA with Harvard Forest's wonderful Ecologists. This is open to all Schoolyard Ecology teachers regardless of the project or how many years teachers have been collecting data. The program offers three levels for participants to choose from. Whether it's getting support entering your data, designing a lesson plan from the database, or getting specific feedback from project scientists on what your data may mean, we've got something for everyone!
The workshop will be at the Fisher Museum, Harvard Forest, 324 N. Main Street, Petersham, MA.
