Project SEAM

CEES, in conjunction with Project SEAM, offers a five-day summer institute for high school teachers at the Lilly ARBOR Project site, an environmental science field station at IUPUI.  Project SEAM is a collaborative effort involving fifteen central Indiana school districts and five post-secondary institutions that have teamed in order to create a "seamless" transition between high school and college for all students. To this end, workshops for secondary teachers provide professional development opportunities and introduction to the resources available at Indiana colleges and universities.  The Ecological Field Study Experience at the Lilly ARBOR Project site utilizes the resources available within the Center for Earth and Environmental Science (CEES) and the Department of Earth Sciences at IUPUI to demonstrate the principles of science-based environmental stewardship.  The summer institute includes:

  • Background content knowledge necessary for teachers to utilize an ecological restoration research site for field and laboratory experiences. 

  • Web-distributed data sets that are generated by researchers at the site. 
  • Support and infrastructure to facilitate experimentation at the site by high school science students during the school year. 
  • Strategies for creating and delivering lessons for the high school students
