We?re sure you?ll find ?Inspiration? when you hear a keynote presenter like author Richard Louv in Minneapolis or Ellen Prager, Author and Chief Scientist, NOAA in Ft. Lauderdale. You?ll likely find ?Discovery? in the Exhibition Hall or at a workshop where tips and techniques are highlighted and lesson plans are handouts. It might be professional ?Growth? that you desire?through seminars and sessions specifically in your discipline. In Phoenix you can count on day long programs in physical science, chemistry, Earth science, and physics. If it?s content knowledge you want, assessment strategies, sessions on ELL issues, or elementary-specific workshops, we have hundreds of offerings at each area conference across the country. We invite teachers from every grade band and every discipline, preservice to veteran, principals and administrators to attend. Fall Conferences on Science Education to consider: * *Minneapolis* *, Oct. 29?31* * *Ft. Lauderdale , Nov. 12?14* * *Phoenix , Dec. 3?5* Other reasons to attend? * For ?Freebies? from Exhibitors when you stop by to visit * For ?Connections? you?ll make with your peers and mentors * For ?Passion? you?ll share with other science educators * For ?Expertise? you?ll develop in your subject * For ?Motivation? to be the best teacher you can be Visit www.nsta.org/conferences for more complete information about our fall conferences. -- * Tim Oldread Director, Center for School and Public Programs Mote Marine Laboratory 1600 Ken Thompson Parkway Sarasota, FL 34236 Phone: 941-388-4441 Fax: 941-388-2174 Tim.Oldread at mote.org www.mote.org * From jimwharton at mote.org Fri Aug 7 16:52:37 2009 From: jimwharton at mote.org (Jim Wharton) Date: Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:52:37 -0400 Subject: [FMSEA] [Fwd: [Education] FW: Space available in Fall EE online courses!] Message-ID: <4A7C9415.9050200@mote.org> This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------030008070900080707010508 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------020809070008040708050601" --------------020809070008040708050601 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit FYI.

Now in its 20th year, the program offers grants up to $10,000 to K?12 science teachers for innovative projects that enhance science education in their school and/or school district over a one-year period. Fifty large grants and a minimum of 20 mini-grants totaling $550,000 will be awarded this year. Individual science teachers or a team of up to five teachers can submit proposals in one of three categories: physical science application; environmental science education; and integrating literacy and science. A judging panel convened by the NSTA will select the award-winning projects based on several criteria, including their innovative approach in teaching science and ability to create a stimulating and hands-on learning environment. Since the program?s inception in 1990, Toyota TAPESTRY grants totaling more than $8.6 million have been awarded to science teachers across the country. More than 2,000 teachers have used those funds to develop and execute extraordinary programs that helped hundreds of thousands of students nationwide make a passionate connection with science. For more information about the Toyota TAPESTRY Grants for Science Teachers program or to learn how to apply, visit www.nsta.org/pd/tapestry. Applications must be submitted no later than January 18, 2010 to be considered.

Smithsonian Survey * Greetings! The Smithsonian Museum of National History's Sant Ocean Hall has been working with the design production company Funny Garbage in the development of an online resource dedicated to scientific information about the ocean. A portion of The Ocean Portal site will serve as a resource where K-12 educators can visit for assistance in developing curricula about ocean related topics. To ensure we develop a useful tool, we are recruiting educators who teach life and earth sciences to take an online survey on how they use teachers' resources on the Internet. ONLINE SURVEY: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=QuXv0pLFikPze8IgmSx8jQ_3d_3d We hope to reach as many teachers as possible in as many geographic locations as possible. The survey should take between 10 and 15 minutes to complete and is available now through September 4th. Feedback from your community would be the very group that we hope to serve with rich and useful resources. Please help circulate this email to educators who would be interested in using this type of resource. *Elizabeth J.
