This workshop is for US-based* instructors interested in incorporating GPS (global positioning system) and SfM (structure from motion) field methods into Earth and environmental science courses. GPS instruments will be shipped to accepted workshop participants free of charge for use during the workshop.
We strongly recommend multiple participants from the same or near-by institutions. This will provide you with the opportunity for local collaborators on the field components AND allow the workshop to reach more people for the same number of instruments.
Community college and introductory-level instructors, as well as majors-level instructors, are all encouraged to apply. Later-stage graduate students with significant teaching responsibilities are also eligible, particularly if multiple people from the same (or near-by) institution participate.
*Participants must be at U.S. institutions for the instrument shipping. If you are interested in participating from outside the U.S. and have access to Emlid GPS receivers locally, please contact beth-pratt-sitaula@earthscope.org.

You could do the online segments independently but would share instruments during two of the midday field components. It is fine to apply now and recruit colleagues or graduate students later, but your application will be strengthen if they also submit applications before the deadline.
