As information for workshops, events, and programs associated with this project becomes available, we will post it here. Be sure to check out the Announcements to the right for opportunities and events from other sources.
Find Your Colleagues
A feeling of isolation is common among many 2YC faculty teaching geoscience. Learn about ways to connect with other 2YC educators in your area or who are interested in similar issues such as NAGT's Division for two-year college faculty.Join the Discussion
If you have questions or want to discuss aspects of teaching geoscience at two-year colleges, you can make use of the Discussion Board. Post a thread or respond to someone else's and generate a conversation about the issues facing 2YC education.
There is also an email list for this effort where members can discuss issues surrounding geoscience education at two-year colleges. You can sign up by going to the discussion list's information page. If you are just interested in receiving quasi-monthly announcements about events and opportunities relevant to 2YC geoscience faculty and students, you can sign up for the 2YC Announcement List.
