April 2023 is Citizen Science Month. In honor of that, Science Friday (science journalism) and SciStarter (a citizen science organization) is offering a series of webinars for EE professionals and nonformal educators on Thursday evenings each week in April. The webinars will be held at 6:00pm MDT on Zoom. Each webinar focuses on 2-3 specific citizen science projects that have strong connections to biodiversity. Participants will leave each webinar with resources and ideas for bringing real-world science to the kids they work with.

Schedule:

  • Ribbit! Citizen Science for National Frog Month. April 6th
  • Earth Day, Every Day with Citizen Science. April 13th
  • Discover Biodiversity in Your Backyard. April 20th
  • Bring Science Home all Year ‘Round. April 27th.

Complete details on each webinar, links to register, and other great citizen science resources, are available at www.sciencefriday.com/CitizenScience.
