We believe in the importance of these offerings so much that we offer them completely free as a non-profit, supported by generous donors and sponsors.

Curricular Support

Science Research is an active, vibrant, and tremendously important part of our lives, but many people, especially students, struggle to understand and feel connected to the research and it’s impacts as it happens. Trophic can help you design, implement, and share educational programming that not only allows you to fulfill your organization’s missions, but opens your research up to funding opportunities and allows your science to be shared.

Previous examples of work:

  • Custom, hands-on, “plug and play” watershed protection unit plan, including student monitoring of local tributaries and waterways designed to be used by science teachers in a Middle School setting.

  • Local farm summer camp field trip plan, designed to introduce regenerative agriculture to students at science camps through soil testing, microscopy, and other hands on activities
