Dive into the Scientific Method with the Marine Science Institute!
This is a four week Saturday course geared for students ages 9-14. Aspiring scientists will take an in-depth look at the scientific method and practice applying it to real hands-on field research.
Students engage in the scientific processes while applying it to take real wrack line data while exploring the marsh and beach at Pescadero State Beach. Students will use this data to formulate graphs in an effort to identify any potential trends. They will gain experience in presenting as they share their final graphs with their peers. Students will also take their highly tuned observation skills to work by creating an experiment of their own.
