The NAGT Advocacy Committee invites members to provide feedback on two NAGT position statements. In accordance with the NAGT procedure for approval of position statements, these statements (one new, one revised) are available for review and feedback by the membership before being voted on by the NAGT Council.
Draft Position Statement Open for Comment
Supporting Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the Geosciences
To advance Earth science education for all, it is critical that geoscience teaching, learning, and research be inclusive, conducted in ways that recognize and value diverse backgrounds, and are anti-racist, anti-ableist, and culturally responsive.
Revised Position Statement Open for Comment
Teaching Biological Evolution
The National Association of Geoscience Teachers (NAGT) recognizes that the scientific theory of biological evolution is a foundational and robustly supported concept of science and, therefore, must also be a cornerstone of science education.
