From July 6-8, seventy-nine teachers from across the state of Oklahoma (including CKTC’s Crystal Nation) attended an immersive three-day summer retreat sponsored by the people of Oklahoma Oil and Natural Gas.
The goal of the Oklahoma Energy Resources Board (OERB) Educators’ Retreat is to provide teachers the opportunity to expand their knowledge about the state’s largest industry so they can provide context and Oklahoma-applications for lessons they already teach in their classroomThe all-expenses paid event offered hands-on industry experience and exclusive tours, including Schlumberger’s Oklahoma City facility, Enbridge’s facilities in Cushing, and a drilling rig tour hosted by Unit Drilling Company and Coterra Energy. The retreat also included a safety briefing before each tour, a presentation from Engaged Learning and a Women in STEM panel discussion.
