This program is called Education And Research: Testing Hypotheses (EARTH) and the objective is to get more real data into the classrooms. MBARI does have an educator professional development workshop that generally runs in the summer for a week.

Teacher Professional Development opportunities at the Monterey Bay Aquarium are posted. There are several educational resources that are available at MBARI although we rely heavily on our partner institution (the Monterey Bay Aquarium) for much of our public outreach. This page lists a small collection of activities and lesson plans from MBARI and various other organizations that can be used at home. NOTE: In response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the education and editorial staff at MBARI have gathered some educational resources that may be useful to parents and students while sheltering in place.
