The Marcellus Seminar will be offered this Summer as a professional development opportunity for middle and high school educators and guidance counselors to explore impacts and issues of Marcellus Shale natural gas extraction. Educators will participate in learning sessions and field trips that will address drilling techniques, air and water quality issues associated with the development of shale gas, and prevention measures that are taken to limit or negate environmental impacts. Each participant will leave with a tool-kit of educational materials that can be used in their classroom or school when discussing the natural gas industry.
The seminar is being held at Mansfield University and has been developed by Dr. Jennifer Demchak.
It will run from July 15-17, 2013 for a cost of $130, which includes all learning sessions, supplies, field trips and meals.
Overnight accommodations for two evenings are available in Mansfield University’s suite-style Hickory Manor for an additional $70/person.
Advance registration with a $75.00 deposit is required.
