Due to public health recommendations to reduce the spread of Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) in San Francisco, this event has been cancelled. If you were registered for this event and have questions, please contact teacherinstitute@exploratorium.edu. Learn more about the Exploratorium's ongoing response to COVID-19.
Materials from the conference are now available. We look forward to future opportunities to present the planned workshops.
Systems science is all around us! From weather and climate to the dynamic cycles churning away beneath our feet, earth systems science connects to all scientific disciplines. Viewing your science classes through a systems lens can help students make connections between the sciences and understand the deep relationship between humans and the natural world, as outlined in the CA NGSS and the California’s Environmental Principles and Concepts. Get ready to engage with activities for your science classroom (grades 4–12) and explore the integration of earth systems science into your curriculum.
This one-day conference will feature:
- A keynote
- Your choice of three hands-on workshops
- Catered breakfast and lunch
- Access to workshop materials online
- One semester unit of Continuing Education credit available for a reasonable fee
Registration cost is $50. A 50% discount is available for teachers at Title I schools. A limited number of travel stipends are available, so register early.
