Congratulations to Gail Tang our Teacher at Sea!
Friday, August 4, 2023, Gail set sail from Honolulu aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette for the Hawaiian Islands Cetacean and Ecosystem Survey (HICEAS.) Gail is an associate professor of mathematics at University of La Verne in southern California. “When I return home, I will work to create some math lessons using research methods, data collection, and data analysis learned aboard the ship,” she writes in her introductory post. “I will also create a lesson to highlight NOAA-related careers. I’m particularly excited about passing on career information to my students!”
We appreciate that Gail has truly embodied the *Flexibility* needed to be a Teacher at Sea – she is finally sailing after several weeks of delay to her originally scheduled survey leg. Follow her blog here: https://noaateacheratsea.blog/author/gailmtang/
