The Keller BLOOM Program
Date: 05/21/17 - 05/26/17
Location: Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences
Attendance: Maine high school JUNIORS (including homeschooled students)
The Keller BLOOM (Bigelow Laboratory Orders Of Magnitude) Program was started by Bigelow Laboratory scientist Maureen Keller to provide students a hands-on ocean science research experience. BLOOM offers Maine students interested in science the opportunity work alongside professional researchers, exploring the biological, chemical and geological characteristics of the local marine environment through field and laboratory work. Program participants are immersed in a research environment and, through engagement in field sampling and laboratory activities, including data collection, synthesis and analysis, learn what a career as a scientist involves.
Maine high school JUNIORS (including homeschooled students) interested in science are encouraged to apply. No prior research experience is necessary. Sixteen students will be selected to participate, Bigelow Laboratory will provide room and board under chaperoned conditions. There is no cost to participate in the program.
For TEACHERS, we have produced a short 3-4 minute video that may be shown in your science class - please go to following website to view: http://www.bigelow.org/education/keller-bloom/.
