Hello all,
 
We're exploring ways that we, as education staff at a Science Centre,
can be a more effective resource for teachers. I'm thinking in
particular of situations where teachers call or drop by with questions
about science content, appropriate activities, other resources etc. (as
opposed to print materials or packages that we create to supplement our
exhibits and programs).
 
Ideally, we'd have a fabulous library on site and a dedicated
question-answerer. But since resources do not permit this, I'd love to
know ways that educators at other science centres act as teacher
resources.
 
Hope that's not too obscure a question.
 
thanks
 
sandy
