SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
NOAA provides educators an
opportunity to gain first-hand
experience with field research activities
through the Teacher at Sea Program.
Through this program, educators spend
up to 3 weeks at sea on a NOAA
research vessel, participating in an ongoing research project with NOAA
scientists. The application solicits
information from interested educators:
Basic personal information, teaching
experience and ideas for applying
program experience in their classrooms,
plus two recommendations and a NOAA
Health Services Questionnaire required
of anyone going to sea. Once educators
are selected and participate on a cruise,
they write a report detailing the events
of the cruise and ideas for classroom
activities based on what they learned
while at sea. These materials are then
made available to other educators so
they may benefit from the experience,
without actually going to sea
themselves. NOAA does not collect
information from this universe of
respondents for any other purpose.
II. Method of Collection
On-line forms can be filled-in on-line,
printed, and mailed. Persons with full
Adobe Acrobat software can save the
on-line form and submit it
electronically.
