Abstract :
The Learning Science through Research program enhances middle and high school science education by linking it with state-of-the-art research through a two-part program. The program´s professional development workshops for secondary science teachers provide background information on ocean sciences and related research. The program´s second component, the student lessons and field trips to our research laboratory, provide students with the opportunity to conduct experiments using first-rate instrumentation and technology.
