Hi! It’s Tuesday, April 10, 2012 and time for Science at Clickschooling!

STEM Academy: Virtual Arctic Expedition
Age Range: 11-18 (about grades 6-12 with parental supervision)
This coming Thursday, April, 12th, at 1:00 PM (ET) you can take the ultimate virtual expedition to explore the Arctic and Antarctic poles with scientists from Discovery Channel’s groundbreaking series, Frozen Planet. This broadcast is sponsored by the STEM Academy. (STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.)
Scientists will talk about their experiences in the polar regions and the work they are doing each and every day to study the evolving landscape and ecosystems there.
As explained at the website, researchers “will discuss how their career lets them make a positive impact on the environment every day, and what students can do to make a difference.”
Registration is required but no special equipment is needed to view this event online. All you need is an internet connected computer.
Those that register for the event will be notified when the archive is available soon after the live event. So, if you can’t make the date/time for the live event, you’ll be able to watch the broadcast when it’s convenient.
Enjoy!
