From the summit of Maunakea to the depths of the Pacific—science like nowhere else on Earth

Looking for science content that makes your students forget they're learning? Join us for ScIC Hawai‘i, a free virtual unconference featuring researchers studying active lava flows, marine biologists diving some of the most biodiverse reefs on the planet, and astronomers working at the world's premier observatories. You'll walk away with fresh ideas, real-world connections, and that "I can't wait to share this" feeling.

Active volcanoes building new land in real time. Coral reefs teeming with species found nowhere else. Observatories peering deeper into space than anywhere on Earth. Where else can you stand on ground that didn't exist five years ago, then look up at stars being born millions of light-years away?

Whether you teach across the island from Kīlauea or across the ocean from it, ScIC Hawai‘i brings together the researchers, educators, and stories that make island science extraordinary. You'll hear from volcanologists, marine biologists, and astronomers doing groundbreaking work—and discover ways to bring that sense of discovery into your own classroom with your students.

Includes:

  • 10+ sessions from experts, scientists, researchers and educational professionals all designed to help you teach science
  • Actionable Teaching Strategies for you to implement with your students
  • Tons of FREE resources for classroom use
  • Links to related lessons in the free PocketLab Notebook library
  • PD certificate for all LIVE attendees
  • Video replay recording for re-watching or if you cannot make it live
