SUMMARY:STEM Education Program: Reno Wildlife Ecology and Carrying Capacity training
DESCRIPTION:In this exploration of DRI’s wildfire curriculum\, you will participate in hands-on activities\, including interactive modeling\, gamified simulations\, and kinesthetic movement. These activities were created in collaboration with DRI’s environmental scientists to allow students to learn about the role of wildfire in Nevada’s sagebrush steppe ecosystem. In the process\, you will have the opportunity to consider the strengths and strategies for using place-based phenomena to make science concepts relevant to students. You will also consider how these topics can apply across science disciplines (earth\, physical\, and life sciences) and STEAM subjects. \nAlthough this training will cover middle school and high school NGSS lessons\, all interested formal and informal educators are welcome to attend! Educators who attend the session will be eligible for up to 4 Continuing Education hours. Please fill out the survey to register. Space is limited. A waitlist option will be added once capacity is reached. \nSpecial note: Washoe County School District teachers have the option to take Meeting the Future of Water in Northern Nevada and Wildfire Ecology and Carrying Capacity as part of a professional development series through MyPGS.

SUMMARY:STEM Education Program: Las Vegas Radon and Weather Training
DESCRIPTION:Bring real-world environmental science to life with engaging\, hands-on investigations that reveal how radon moves through the environment and how weather factors impact radon levels. Educators will explore how air and water move through different soil types and discuss how these processes influence radon movement\, practice using radon detectors\, and rotate through weather stations that model temperature\, pressure\, and cloud formation through simple\, engaging demonstrations. The training will highlight ready-to-use resources to help students understand radon risks and mitigation strategies in their own communities. \nWhile this training is focused on middle school level curriculum\, all interested formal and informal educators are welcome to attend! Educators who attend the session will be eligible for up to 3 Continuing Education hours. Please fill out the survey to register. Space is limited.

SUMMARY:Vanishing Point: Stories of Depths\, Disappearance\, and Ghosts Beneath the Surface
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening steeped in mystery and shadow as we explore the stories that linger where certainty fades. This event invites you into the realm of unsolved puzzles\, elusive evidence\, and the echoes of lives that slipped beneath the surface. \nWoven alongside this scientific investigation\, storytellers will share tales of forgotten histories\, spectral memories\, and the thin veil between what we know and what we can only imagine. Held near Halloween\, Vanishing Point invites you to sit with the uncanny—where disappearances raise questions\, remnants whisper back\, and the past flickers like a ghost just out of view. \nArrive early and take time to explore the Atomic Museum. Curiosity Lab attendees receive free access to the exhibits from 5:00–6:30 p.m. \n$15 – General Admission\n$10 – Discounted Tickets for Students and Educators \nPurchase Tickets!  \nThank you to our community partners Nevada Humanities & Atomic Museum. \n     \n
