Dear Colleague:
The Astronomical Society of the Pacific (ASP) is pleased
to announce that the web site for its 2010 meeting is now
accepting registration and abstract submissions at:
http://www.astrosociety.org/2010meeting
This meeting, being held on the scenic University of Colorado
campus in Boulder from Jul. 31 to Aug. 4, brings together,
for the first time, two hands-on symposia that the ASP
has been sponsoring:
* Cosmos in the Classroom: Teaching Introductory Astronomy
and Planetary Science to Non-science Majors
* Earth and Space Science: Making Connections in
Education and Public Outreach.
In addition, there will be a weekend workshop on teaching
astronomy for teachers in grades 3-12 and those who work
with them.
Inexpensive hotel accommodations and campus
residence halls have been arranged to keep meeting costs
as low as possible. Some scholarships are available for
astronomy instructors from community colleges and other
colleges where travel budgets are limited or non-existent.
Abstracts are welcome for a number of different types of
contributions to the two symposia, including poster papers,
one-hour hands-on workshops, and special interest group
discussions. Full instructions are available on the meeting
web site. The deadline for submitting an abstract is
April 23.
There is a substantial discount for early registration and
hotel space near the campus is limited. We encourage
participants to register early and make vacation plans around
this meeting in one of the most beautiful spots in the U.S.
