What is GLOBE Teacher Training?
This is a hands-on workshop to provide teachers skills and knowledge for participation in the international GLOBE Program (www.globe.gov). Teachers help students learn to take accurate measurements of their environment. GLOBE data is collected internationally, and students must learn to follow consistent protocols to produce scientifically useful data. During the four and a half day training workshop teachers learn and tryout the GLOBE protocols, learn and try out software for GLOBE collaborations, plan how they will implement GLOBE at their school, get to know one another and establish relationships that may lead to electronic classroom exchanges on student activities.
