Reviews
"An outstanding, immersive time in the Amazon Rainforest full of new and rich life experiences, an armfull of knowledge, quality collaborations with colleagues from across the country, laughs, and great workshops/discussions. The canopy walkway will take your breath away! Highly recommended, even by this English teacher who was surrounded by Science heavy-hitters and never felt out of place-- quite the opposite in fact! Go for it! (And the concept of cold water showers, latrines, and mosquito-netted beds-- plus the constant threat of rain-- SOUNDS far more intimidating than it actually is... no worries... and you will be fed WELL by the team)."
"This was an amazing experience. Learning about ecology of the Amazon rainforest in place was powerful. Our guides and faculty were terrific and incredibly knowledgeable. Learning about the Maijuna people and their way of life was a powerful experience."
"This professional development will change the way you engage with your students and the world around you. There are many exciting opportunities to build long term friendships and professional networks seeking equity, wonder, and scientific knowledge. I'm looking forward to the next time I can join a Morpho Institute adventure in the Amazon!"
"Exploring the Amazon Rainforest with a group of passionate educators through the Morpho Institute was both career and life changing. You'll have time to design and try out your own scientific investigation in the most awe inspiring PD location and you'll also see the human impact on the Amazon first hand. It influences how I teach every day."
"Wow! There are no words to describe how life altering exploring the Amazon rainforest with the Morpho Institute can be! I had the privilege of attending the Educator Academy to the Amazon in 2022. The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. They treat you like family. The food and lodging is impressive, tasty and comfortable. Their mission is incredibly important and educational. You won’t be disappointed and you will gain friendships and experiences that last!"
