After nearly five years of bringing graduate students and delegations of teachers from Bhutan to Teton Science Schools, an official delegation from TSS and the University of Wyoming will be traveling to Bhutan in January 2013. Doug Wachob, Tracy Logan and I will represent TSS and Kate Welsh will join our team from the University of Wyoming. We will be gone from January 7 – 25, 2013 including two weeks in Bhutan with about half a week of travel time to and from Bhutan. Pending access to internet, we will update the Journal as a blog to serve as a record of our trip – thanks to Nick Delmolino for helping to coordinate the blog from Wyoming!While in Bhutan, our team will offer two three-day workshops for 25 teachers.
