    Middle-Level Teachers Needed for

    Paid Research Study

    The National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF), the University of California, Berkeley, and the Climate Mental Health Network are seeking participants for a research study of middle school teachers to learn more about student emotions related to climate change, and what resources would help educators respond to and support those reactions in their classrooms.

    Are You Eligible? You are eligible for this study if you:

    ·    Speak English

    ·    Currently work as a teacher serving middle school students (5th-8th grade) 

    ·    Work at a public school (or public charter school) in the United States

    ·    Have access to a private, Wi-Fi-connected computer, tablet, or phone with video capabilities

    ·    Identify with at least ONE of the following:

    ·    Have ever taught about climate change or related environmental issues.

    ·    Have ever encountered a student who was experiencing negative emotions related to learning about climate change, or due to being directly impacted by an extreme weather event (such as a major flood, hurricane, tornado, fire, heatwave, drought, or other).

    ·    Currently teach in a school district that has been impacted by an extreme weather event in the last five years.

    Note: You are not eligible for this study if you are currently receiving or pursuing grant funding from the National Environmental Education Foundation.

    Your participation includes completing one 20-minute online survey and participating in one 90-minute online focus group meeting. You will receive $100 for participating in the focus group and $20 for completing the survey.
