IGUaNA
The goal of the IGUaNA project is to attract a diverse population of students to geophysics through the development of teaching materials that highlight the application of geophysical tools and methods to societally-relevant questions, including environmental, engineering, and forensic questions in urban settings. SERC provided the PIs with website hosting, formative and summative evaluation, and workshop design and facilitation expertise.
