Diane Madden and Mindy Brooks hosted the first SciTEC professional development workshop for the 2015 year! Madden, SciTEC STEM Science Outreach Coordinator, received a grant from the Louisiana Environmental Education Consortium to host the one day event in Woodard Hall in the College of Education on January 10. Mindy Brooks from the LSU Ag Center and 4-H served as guest presenter and covered topics related to conservation and the flora and fauna associated with the wetlands environment. Teachers from around the state engaged in activities with live crayfish and collected data while modeling effective instructional practices they could take back to their classrooms. You can check out more images from the event on the SciTEC and IDEA Place Facebook page:. https://www.facebook.com/TheIDEAPlace. No crayfish were harmed in the hosting of this event! :)
