Join Us for a Livestream from an Antarctic Research Vessel! 

Featuring Polar STEAM fellows: Amanda McBride (Linus Pauling Middle School), Kiley Preheim (Chisholm Middle School), and Becky Robinson (University of Rhode Island). 

Tuesday, December 3rd from 10:00 – 10:45am Pacific Time.

This livestream event invites students, educators, and curious learners to tune in, learn, and ask questions about Antarctic research conducted on the Research Vessel Nathaniel B. Palmer. The content will be aimed at a middle school audience, but we welcome learners of all ages to join us.  Professor of Oceanography, Becky Robinson, and middle school teachers, Amanda McBride and Kiley Preheim, will share information about the science and highlights from their journey in this remote setting. While the event will be recorded for anyone to see at a later time, those that watch it live will have the opportunity to post questions to get real-time answers from the Polar STEAM fellows. 

Please share with educators you know who may want to tune in with their classrooms! Livestream can be viewed by going to the direct link below or by visiting our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@polarsteamteam.
