Aus teachers invited to explore GLOBE
The Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) Program is a NASA-sponsored international science and education program that provides students and the public worldwide with the opportunity to participate in data collection and the scientific process, and to contribute meaningfully to our understanding of the Earth and global environment.
Australia's CSIRO advises that a GLOBE webinar will be held on Wednesday, 24 February at 4 pm AEDT. The webinar is aimed at primary and secondary school teachers and will look at some of the data collection and data access options in GLOBE, as well as exploring a few ideas using GLOBE in the classroom.

GLOBE is sponsored by NASA and delivered in Australia through a partnership between the CSIRO and the Australian Space Agency.
