Description:This report documents educator workshops hosted in coastal Mississippi and Alabama for the NAS Gulf Research Program funded project “Building Sea-Level Rise and Flood Resilience Capacity Through Students and Teachers.” Two workshops were hosted, one in coastal Mississippi and one in coastal Alabama to engage the educators in the development of a curriculum on sea-level rise (SLR) designed specifically for Alabama and Mississippi high school students. These workshops were targeted for science and social studies formal and non-formal educators to introduce them to the curriculum and to capture their feedback on the early drafts. Educators were provided an opportunity to explore lessons and activities and provide feedback through small and large group discussions and a worksheet. Workshop evaluation results indicate that average participate strongly agreed that participating in this workshop was a good use of their time and that the structure and format were very satisfying. Additionally, pre and post-test comparisons indicated educators’ knowledge of the curriculum and of local community resilience practices increased. The feedback collected at these workshops will be used to continue refining the curriculum.
