The Depart­ment of Fish­eries, together with Wood­side Energy, have devel­oped a brand new on-line edu­ca­tion tool called Marine WATERs (West­ern Aus­tralian Teacher Edu­ca­tion Resources). Book in to the upcom­ing Pro­fes­sional Learn­ing ses­sions with three loca­tions to choose from:

Arranged across five themed mod­ules – processes, marine biol­ogy, habi­tat, humans and man­age­ment – Marine WATERs con­nects edu­ca­tors and stu­dents with cur­ricu­lum linked resources and mate­ri­als devel­oped specif­i­cally to study West­ern Australia’s unique marine ecosys­tems and address chal­lenges fac­ing the sus­tain­abil­ity of our aquatic resources.

Tar­get­ing Pri­mary and Sec­ondary teach­ers, this infor­ma­tion ses­sion will cover:

• How to find resources on Marine WATERs
• How to inte­grate Marine WATERs mate­ri­als into your teaching-learning program
• Reg­is­tra­tion and feedback
• Addi­tional Marine WATERs resources in production
• Infor­ma­tion about local fish­eries edu­ca­tion pro­grams and an oppor­tu­nity to receive hard­copy take away resources.

Refresh­ments will be provided.
