Summary/Goals: Local teacher support for GLOBE consists of protocol workshops and CATTS student support for local area teachers.
Activities and outcomes during past year:
UA is a GLOBE partnership site. We have about 3-4 one-day workshops per year, often at locations outside of Tucson like Phoenix, Rio
Rico and the Verde Valley. Typically these are small, with about 10 participants each.
Plans for the upcoming year:
Cross-train more trainers and find ways of motivation students to collect data useful to the Center. Our river restoration monitoring proposal was not funded by GLOBE but is being reworked into a TRIF proposal.
Organization Involvement:
ASDM is a registered GLOBE Affiliate site. They use GLOBE protocols, particularly soil, in various student and teacher courses.
