information
The Ethnobotany Segues to Science Project
will be featured in four ways within the meeting:
- Will McClatchey
will be presenting results of the initial project year during the opening
symposium session as one of the key note speakers.
- ALL project
participants are encouraged to present their results as papers and posters
within the contributed sessions of the meeting. Given the general theme of
this meeting, this is a great opportunity for us to show off our course
and curriculum development activities.
- A display booth
and poster area will be set aside specifically for demonstration of the
Segues to Science Project. This will be on display during the entire
meeting with volunteers available to discuss the project and distribute
information about it.
- A workshop will
be held that will be:
- Well
advertised (beyond SEB and the usual education networks)
- Organized for
in two sections: 1) teaching about segues, 2) developing segues
- Designed to
deliver a product (we have several ideas in mind, but want to hear
suggestions)
- Supported
(grants are being written!)
