CoastWalk Education
Get your students involved in real science that makes a difference by particpating in Kachemak Bay CoastWalk.
CACS educators will bring hands-on activities to your classroom to illustrate the biodiversity of Kachemak Bay, the value of our marine habitats, and the human impact on marine life. Special emphasis is placed on the problem of marine debris on Alaska beaches, with activities to train studnets on how to collect marine debris data during clean-ups. Following the classroom visit, CACS can help arrange a CoastWalk citizen science monitoring and marine debris clean-up fieldtrip.
