September 2nd abstract deadline for American Geophysical Union (AGU)
Please post to your listserv(s) this call for abstracts
---- READ BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION --------------------------
For the 8th year in a row, a very "worth-your-while" education session, ED17, is again being offered at the Fall American Geophysical Union (AGU) Meeting in San Francisco, December 13-17, 2010.
ED17,"Teacher Professional Development Programs Promoting Authentic Scientific Research in the Classroom", will focus on research experiences for teachers, the roles of scientists and education specialists, and authentic scientific research in the classroom. Specifically, abstracts are requested from scientists, education specialists, and teachers who are or have been directly involved with teacher-research experiences. Over the years, the programs and presenters who have contributed to this session benefited from the presentations and resulting collaborations. Presentations are invited from any of the scientific disciplines and from previous and new presenters. Scientist-teacher research teams are particularly encouraged. Printed materials and CDs supplied by presenters accompany the session. For details on the session and to view the abstracts, PowerPoint presentations, and photographs from oral and poster sessions over the years, visit http://www.noao.edu/education/agu/.
Abstract Deadline: September 2, 2010 (23:59 EDT)
The abstract on-line submission form and submittal instructions are available from the AGU Web site at http://www.agu.org/meetings/fm10/. AGU policy allows one "education" abstract to be submitted in addition to a "science" abstract. If you are not a member of AGU, an AGU member may sponsor you to submit an abstract.
