Connected Learning Ecosystem

Welcome to the Seacoast’s Community Science focused Connected Learning Ecosystem! Together with educators, scientists, naturalists, libraries, and community partners we share resources, ideas, and innovate the ways we engage youth and community in place-based environmental observation and monitoring. Better understanding our local ecosystems and documenting change over time will help build the climate and data literacy youth need to tackle the challenges ahead. Our CLE believes in the transformative power of personal experiences, place-based learning and local investigation.
