Science Approach has been awarded $1,035,020 by the Information Technologies for Students and Teachers (ITEST) program at the National Science Foundation (NSF) for its CoastLines project (NSF award number 0737706).
 A Comprehensive Project for Students and Teachers, CoastLines will introduce fundamental concepts about information technologies (IT) to teachers in grade 7-12 schools. It will accomplish this goal by involving teachers and students in using geographic information systems (GIS) and global positioning systems (GPS) to conduct scientific studies of coastal ecosystems in the National Science Foundation’s Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) network. CoastLines will build on lessons learned by CIPE and other practitioners about offering GIS-based training to K-12 educators. For more information, visit the project page.
