## News

- The SERC site has reorganized! As SERC's focus has expanded beyond the geosciences we've moved to this new front page to provide a view across all our collaborations. The redesigned Teach the Earth portal can be found via the links on this new front page, as can the new Pedagogy in Action portal. The new structure also has an improved search page that covers all the materials hosted at SERC.
- We've launched a new Pedagogy in Action portal. This multi-disciplinary portal features the work of our pedagogic service partners documenting the how, what and why of their most important pedagogic techniques. These are integrated with a complementary set of classroom activities and a growing bibliography of materials related to research on learning.
- Several new pedagogic modules are available through the Pedagogy in Action site including Teaching with Data Simulations and Making and Testing Conjectures developed as part of a collaboration with CAUSE: the Consortium for the Advancement of Undergraduate Statistics Education.
- Teaching Big Science at Small Colleges: a Genomics Collaboration is multi-institution effort to infuse cutting edge genomics research into undergraduate curricula.
