Teach
The SeaPerch program is a great way to get students interested in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). SeaPerch easily aligns to the national science standards and lends itself well to interdisciplinary projects. As we travel the world spreading SeaPerch, educators are creatively integrating this project into their classroom.
Resource and Activity Guide
The Research and Activity Guide is a 59 page downloadable document that provides a framework of descriptions and activities to help groups understand the mission and opportunities of SeaPerch. This includes an overview of how to start a program, suggestions for managing a SeaPerch competition in your area, and career connections. In addition, there is a sampling of full science lessons with related standards available for teachers and mentors to use with their science enthusiasts!

A Teacher Training Program
One of the most important aspects of SeaPerch is that it includes training for teachers. The two methods of training are online, either with a webcast or video training modules, or on-site training. One to one-and-a-half-day onsite training may be arranged upon request, based on availability. Please submit a request if you are interested in discussing SeaPerch training at your location. Continuing education and/or professional development credits may also be offered, as educators are often required to attend workshops throughout the year to maintain their teaching license.
