LTER Education 

    LTER has begun a broad-scale, long-term effort to combine scientific research and science education, supported by the individual LTER sites and the National Science Foundation Divisions of Environmental Biology and Education and Human Resources. Goals include: 
Utilizing LTER resources to enhance hands-on science learning for students 
Developing long-term research sites on or near school yards 
Facilitating communication between LTER scientists, formal and informal science educators, and school teachers.
