Teachers were invited to participate in Think! Energy via phone and personal email communications. The <br />program director, Chaise Ewert-Meyer, reached out to each lead teacher to invite them to participate. Teachers <br />could enroll either through a registration form on ihinkenergy.org/ERMU or over phone/email with Chaise. After <br />enrolling, teachers received immediate confirmation. Presentations were scheduled for April 29th-May 1st and <br />were conducted by Chaise. The teacher materials and kits shipments were sent before the presentations, so <br />everything was ready on the presentation day.
