The teacher workshop will be offered again this October 2009, cosponsored by the Geological Survey of Alabama education committee, The University of West Alabama, and Discovering Alabama, with volunteer support from members of the Birmingham Paleontological Society.

The workshop is intended for anyone who teaches Earth science in Alabama or who expects to do so in the future. It is primarily aimed at K-12 teachers with little or no geology training.  You will learn the basic geology of Alabama, how to identify fossils found in Alabama, and participate in a fossil collecting field trip.  Also, there will be great door prizes once again!
