Hello all! We have received the go ahead for a session from AGU! We encourage you to read our session description (below) and the go to the abstract central page and submit your geoscience education abstract. Remember that this will not count as your first author abstract for the conference, so you can submit to this session and your primary research. Submitting to this session is also a way to demonstrate your commitment to quality education and what you are doing to change the way geoscience education is done. We spend lots of time making classroom activities, this session gives you an opportunity to show off that work. Stay tuned to this blog for speaking tips, preparation updates, and some example projects that we do!
Please share this session with your peers via social media and a poster available here. Be sure to use #keepinggeologyalive in your social media posts.

Title: Keeping Geology Alive: Interactive Demonstrations in the Earth Sciences (Pop-Ups)
Session ID#: 2518
Session Description:
This session offers students an opportunity to give a 5 minute presentation focused on outreach and classroom activities and demonstrations related to the geosciences. Presentations can cover classroom and public demonstrations, methods, or platforms for sharing geoscience research to students and/or the public in an accessible and engaging way. Inclusion of videos and instructions is encouraged. Submissions are restricted to students and do not count towards the single lead author abstract limit for AGU. The goal of this session is to share ideas for engaging students and the public in geosciences research.
