Smithsonian's SHOUT! project

I took part in an online brainstorming session for teachers this afternoon for Smithsonian Education's new SHOUT! project. Shout invites educators and students to take an active role in global environmental issues. In the field and online, teachers and students can interact with experts, share ideas, and collaborate with people around the world committed to solving environmental challenges.

Shout is a partnership with the Smithsonian Institution, Microsoft Partners in Learning, and Taking It Global.

This is an exciting opportunity for not only science-based classes, but also for any teachers looking to add a science component to their cross-curricular units, and it offers up great project-based connections.
