Study sites will include Oak Openings, Lake Erie marshes, Stranahan Arboretum, metroparks, city parks, rivers and streams, local farms, Toledo Art Museum, Toledo Botanical Gardens, and other field settings.

Participation is free for local teachers and others who are interested in learning about Northwestern Ohio. You can also register for 3 hours of University of Toledo credits at the normal summer rate. Also, participants will receive a stipend they can use to support classroom applications and extensions. In addition to free handouts, maps, and books, groups of teachers from specific schools receive a technology-enhanced sampling kit to bring back to their schools and use in their classrooms. Enrollment is limited! Click
