Dear all,
There is an opportunity for school and college teachers to spend
time (two months!) at sea on the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program ship
"JOIDES Resolution" during 2014.
Note the deadline of Friday 22nd November!
Also I am not sure what the definition of "University teacher" is in
the announcement below.
Please pass this call on to any teachers you know, or re-post it on
email lists of teachers with relevant interests.
Thanks.
Sheila Peacock, list co-owner.
