How do I participate in CSRES?

  1. You should be a secondary school teacher with responsibilities for directing student research or an interest in developing student research capabilities. (If you are a middle school teacher, please contact project personnel to discuss programs at your school.)

  2. You should be interested in increasing your own capabilities to understand and teach climate science and to engage your students in this important science topic.

  3. You should recognize that CSRES is not just a "summer workshop" program. It requires an ongoing commitment from its participants in return for ongoing support in the form of workshops, science background, mentoring support, and equipment for student projects.

  4. You may participate either individually or as a team with peers from your own and/or other schools.

  5. You will need the full support of your school administration.

  6. Register for participating in CSRES by downloading this template letter (in Word format) and sending it to the address on the letter or e-mailing a copy to brooksdr@instesre.org. (You may modify the template letter to fit your own circumstances.)

  7. If you do not live in the NYC area, please contact Project Director David Brooks to see if travel support is available.
