Since
2000, the
Edgerton Center has partnered with CEHS to offer Lessons available to
Middle
and High School groups visiting MIT. These lessons provide an
introduction to Environ- mental Health Science and basic genetics. |

Summerbridge
prepares thousands of underprivileged middle school students for
college
preparatory courses. COEC has provided Science programming
for the Cambridge site since 2005.

COEC
collaborated with the MIT Museum to develop a unique classroom/exhibit
called the Learning Lab: the Cell. Teachers bring classes
to the museum for a two hour hands-on lesson with a facilitator where
students use models to learn how DNA makes proteins. |

 |
MIT has a wide variety of K-12 Educational Outreach programs available to the public, and COEC is proud to be included in this group. |

High
school biology teachers can find excellent prepared lessons based on
articles from a major international journal, Environmental Health
Perspectives, a publication from NIEHS.

Teachers can search for lessons by topic. Some lessons are short
as 15 minutes and others take more than one class period. Some
can be used as a homework assignment. |
