Science Education and Outreach
We equip teachers with the knowledge and resources they need to accurately teach evolution, climate change, and the nature of science.
My COAST (Climate-Oriented Authentic Science Teaching)
My COAST is a professional development opportunity to improve K-12 teacher understanding, interest, content knowledge, and pedagogical practices related to coastal areas most threatened by our changing climate. These hands-on, minds-on workshops give teachers a chance to study coastal regions in the field, with support from local scientists, and engage with researchers and NCSE staff to shape classroom experiences for their students.

This is what teachers are saying about their My COAST experience:
This PD was expertly designed with the teacher in mind. I would do it again if I had the chance.
It definitely renewed my sense of purpose as a science teacher.
It is a great way to help our kids think about how their education can apply in the real world.
My COAST leverages the resources and expertise of local higher education partners:
