Weather Edutainment on the Web: The Southeast Regional Climate Center's outreach program
The Southeast Regional Climate Center maintains an outreach program that
meets the weather and climate-related needs of the K-12 educational
community. To help support this objective, the SERCC has developed a number
of web-based activities whose purpose is both to educate the user on the
basics of weather and climate as well as to entertain. These "edutainment"
activities are all original designs, some of which are based on similar
non-weather and climate activities developed elsewhere. One of the
activities has been selected by the National Science Teachers Association to
be included in a database of websites that can be accessed by readers of
selected elementary and secondary science textbooks. This poster describes
the range of web-based educational resources maintained by the SERCC.
