Jessica Fries-Gaither will present the workshop “Energy Sources of the Polar Regions” on Saturday, December 6 at the National Science Teachers Association regional conference in Cincinnati, OH. The workshop is scheduled for 8:00 a.m. in Room 211 of the Duke Energy Center. We hope you’ll join us for an interactive session exploring lessons and activities about renewable and nonrenewable energy sources and their connection to the polar regions.

The workshop draws from the October 2008 issue of the Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears magazine - Energy and the Polar Environment. Within this issue, natural resources are the focus of the Across the Curriculum department.

If you aren’t able to attend the workshop, you can still access the presentation and resource list.
