  High School Teacher Workshops at Allegheny College

With a view to reaching additional teachers and students in the Western Pennsylvania region, we have established collaboration with Allegheny College, located approximately 90 miles north of Pittsburgh. This partnership will take advantage of opportunities provided by the Biological Sciences Pymatuning Laboratory of Ecology, located just 15 miles from Allegheny College, and enable us to offer a broader range of workshop topics and disseminate our Pitt Kits to classrooms in the area.

For the flagship year of this program, Director of Outreach Programs Dr. Alison Slinskey Legg and Dr. Ann Kleinschmidt from Allegheny College will be presenting a one-week workshop focused on the investigation of nucleic acids. This workshop will give teachers a way to connect the current science of DNA techniques to the required academic standards. We are excited to be able to reach more teachers and students as we broaden the scope of the Outreach program.

Check back soon for the exact dates of the workshop and how to apply. If you have any questions, contact the Director of Outreach Programs, Dr. Alison Slinskey Legg.
