I am Janice McDonnell and I will be Jim’s co-blogger for COSEE NOW. I have been fortunate enough in the last 15 years to work with ocean scientists here at Rutgers and other institutions interested in communicating their science broadly, not to mention getting high marks in panel reviews for their proposal to meet criterion II! My goal is [...]

This week the Rutgers component of COSEE NOW was pleased to have two of our colleagues from COSEE CA visit to discuss a NOAA funded project to create an ocean science curriculum for grades 3-5. It is especially exciting because the product will be carefully sequenced to the ocean literacy principles and will be commercially [...]
Today I was reviewing the big flip chart paper notes from our recent COSEE NOW Storytelling workshop. It seems like a good idea at the time, to use these giant pieces of paper to record the great ideas that are generated in brainstorming sessions. As I spread the paper out like a giant map over [...]
Things are moving along for COSEE NOW. We had a very successful workshop at the Maryland Science Center in Baltimore MD where we discussed storytelling as a communication tool. Andy Goodman, who is a communication consultant who works with a variety of non profits through the U.S., gave a compelling hands-on program about [...]
The COSEE NOW team has done a lot of leg work to help us plan the development of this site, and answer the question… If we build a collaborative website where scientists and educators can exchange information, collaborate and share education/outreach techniques about OOS… will they come? Will they use it?
All in all, our evaluator [...]
