Earth2Class presents “New Insights on Ocean Acidification”, with Taro Takahashi,Taro Takahashi, Ewing Lamont Research Professor, Division of Geochemistry, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, The Earth Institute; Adjunct Professor, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences (DEES), Columbia University.

E2C is a unique science/math/technology resource for K-12 teachers, students, the general public, and geoscientists. It is a collaboration among researchers and an Earth Science educator at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University; technology integration specialists from Colégio Bandeirantes, São Paulo, Brasil; and classroom teachers from New York, New Jersey, and elsewhere. It centers around “Saturday Workshops for Educators” held at Columbia’s Lamont Campus in Palisades N.Y. One key feature to E2C is involvement of LDEO scientists. Their availability through workshops, web site postings, and e-mail allow teachers and students access to cutting-edge research which can be used to develop learning activities directly linked to “real-world problems,” and provide scientists with an effective format to disseminate their discoveries more broadly.

Location: Columbia University Lamont Campus Marine Biology/Seismology Building Seismology Seminar Room, 2nd Floor
There is a charge on the day of the event to cover food and supplies. Columbia affiliates are $10, non-affiliates $25.

Pre-registration is required.
