This workshop is for both formal and informal educators who are interested in teaching, either in the classroom or community, about how to utilize community science for flood and drought monitoring and build more resilient communities. The first half of this workshop will consist of a short presentation of the project and resource materials, and the second part will be a field-based activity offering the chance to contribute to the flood monitoring project directly.
No prior experience is required, just an interest in teaching about flooding and its impacts, along with a willingness to use a hands-on approach in doing so. Participants will need to come prepared to spend half the workshop outdoors and should wear environmentally appropriate footwear and clothing.
