Innovations in Road Weather Science
THE DATE FOR THIS WORKSHOP HAS ALREADY PASSED. Check back soon for upcoming professional development offerings.
Looking for ideas to bring excitement and real-world connections to your weather unit? Your students will be fascinated to learn about the innovations and technology used in road weather safety.
One in five vehicle crashes in the U.S. are due to snow, rain, fog, wind, and other severe weather-related conditions. Learn how research at the intersection of transportation, weather, climate, artificial intelligence, and automated cars is revolutionizing how surface transportation and weather communities are working together to increase traffic safety, efficiency, and mobility. Meet a NSF NCAR weather scientist and learn about this fascinating area of research.
After Q&A with the scientist, hear from educators at the UCAR Center for Science Education about free, K-12 classroom resources related to the webinar.
This webinar is hosted by the National Science Teaching Association (NSTA) as part of their Science Updates web series. We invite you to register for upcoming web seminars at NSTA.
