Teacher resources available through the NSRC It will soon be time for the Smithsonian Science Education Academies for Teachers (SSEATs) this summer! In collaboration with other museums and units of the Smithsonian, the SSEC works to create and deliver week-long professional development academies for teachers of science. The weeklong academies were developed to bridge the gap between formal and informal science education by combining training in science content and pedagogy with behind the scenes experiences at a wide variety of Smithsonian units, Smithsonian Affiliate partners, and world-class science research facilities throughout the Washington DC area. This years academies include the Biodiversity Academy; Energy: Past, Present, and Future; and Earth's History and Global Change Academy. Can't wait until the 2014 SSEATs? Then take a look at these great overviews of the 2013 SSEATs!
