Educators learn innovative ways to incorporate the natural environment into their classrooms and earn 2 semester credits in a week (these courses may also be taken as non-credit workshops). Designed for classroom teachers, informal educators and education majors with a junior rank or above, these courses cover science content and teaching methodologies. Teachers share ideas with peers in a stimulating atmosphere while they enhance their knowledge of science. These one-week courses typically meet from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day, though many also meet in the evening.
