SERC is taking a multi-pronged approach to improving the accessibility of geoscience education resources as part of the Compass project. A key element is a new resource guide designed to get instructors up-to-speed on accessibility best practices.

Activity descriptions now include key category information like Subject, and Grade Level. This information is connected to our new Activity Search Interface so that you can jump directly from a particular activity to others on the same topic.

The Compass project has advanced a pair of new navigation tools for visitors to SERC hosted sites. The 'Where I've Been Feature' allows you to review and revisit content that you've visited earlier.  The 'Pages You Might Like' feature recommends resources from across SERC that relate to your current exploration.

Many of us have been impacted by the Executive Orders issued in the last ten days and the uncertainty they have created. Amidst this uncertainty, NAGT can offer some solace and a refuge. NAGT is here as a resource—whether through our professional network, advocacy and DEI committees, or professional development events and resources. If you need a space to connect with others, access resources, or simply engage in meaningful conversations, we encourage you to take part in our community.

The first article in the new format of In the Trenches is now available online! Hear from Editor Redina Finch about the new online format and thoughts on the winter season.

Deadline today! Register for NAGT's Facilitating Effective Group Projects in Geoscience Courses Workshop
