 The Jacques Cousteau Coastal Education Center in Tuckerton, NJ is
 dedicated to providing professional development and educational
 resources for K-12 educators.  The Jacques Cousteau Center and its
 partners have recently been named the Mid Atlantic Center for Ocean
 Science Education Excellence (COSEE) by the National Science
 Foundation (NSF).

 Take a look at our 2003 opportunities at
 http://marine.rutgers.edu/cousteau/education/education.htm. Highlights
 include:

 - The Marine Activities Resources & Education (MARE) Summer Institute
 for K-5 educators (August 10-15, 2003).  MARE, developed by the
 Lawrence Hall of Science, is a collection of interdisciplinary marine
 science activities designed to bring the excitement of ocean learning
 to your school.    The Jacques Cousteau Coastal Education Center is
 one of several regional training centers for MARE.

 2003): A workshop designed to introduce grade 6-9 educators to new
 scientific content and applications for the classroom.  The goal of
 the workshop is to provide participants with content, resources, and
 experiences based on the latest oceanographic research, technology,
 and data.

 - On –line Curricula Project:  Pilot Teachers Needed!   The Mid
 Atlantic COSEE is offering the opportunity to review unique and
 compelling Internet based curricula that focus on interdisciplinary
 ocean science topics.  The  C.O.O.L Classroom is designed to teach
 basic science concepts using an interdisciplinary marine science
 theme.  The Gulf Stream Voyage is an online multidisciplinary project
 that utilizes both real time data and primary source materials to help
 guide students to discover the science and history of the Gulf Stream.
 The Mid Atlantic COSEE is offering the opportunity for educators to
 pilot test these materials in their middle or high school classrooms.
