Students Learn About NOAA at Great American Teach-In

NOVEMBER 20, 2015--On November 19, 2015, OR&R's Kevin Kirsch and Michel Gielazyn participated in the Great American Teach-In at Douglas L. Jamerson Jr. Elementary School in St. Petersburg, Florida.

They gave an interactive presentation to 40 childern from two fifth grade classes. The presentation introduced the students to NOAA, what NOAA does, and the problems of marine pollution. They assisted the students in applying the scientific method to determine if adverse impacts to marine organisms occurred after exposure to oil from an oil spill.
