EarthEd2YC is back for 2015

Earth Education Resources for Two-Year College Faculty (EarthEd2YC) is a monthly webinar series facilitated by NASA's Science Mission Directorate (SMD) Earth Science Education & Public Outreach Forum (SMD E/PO) and NAGT's Geosciences for Two-Year Colleges (Geo2YC) professional division. Part-time faculty are especially encouraged to participate and to present. EarthEd2YC brings community college faculty together to exchange classroom ideas and resources in an engaging, quick format that values your time and maximizes sharing between participants.

Each live webinar is on the first Friday of the month at 1:00pm Eastern Time (10:00am Pacific Time). Each live 20 minute presentation is followed by 10 minutes of discussion, with real time chat throughout. All resources discussed in the webinar are made available online. The webinars are recorded and made available for later viewing. NASA Earth Forum is providing a Zoom (virtual conference) room and tech support so you merely need a laptop with a decent microphone and webcam.

If you would like to be a presenter, please contact Amber Kumpf at Amber.Kumpf@muskegoncc.edu
