Abstract
This session is an open forum. Teachers of various grade levels will present what works for them in the classroom. Presentations and discussions will range from specific activites, to relating STSE (Science, Technology, Society and Environmment)issues to earth science topics, to the link betweem earth science and the arts. The open concept is meant to provide an opportunity for educators to share their experiences with other teachers and with outreach geoscientists. Hopefully, it will be a great learning experience for all.
