Get Involved

The InTeGrate project hinges on active participation from faculty across the country. There are many avenues for participation, such as joining a curriculum development team, testing newly developed materials, applying for a grant to make innovative use of curricular materials, or attending a workshop. These types of involvement mirror the structure of the InTeGrate Program, consisting of three program elements:

  1. Creating Teaching Materials and Examples of their Use active 2012 - 2014
  2. Incorporating geoscience throughout the curriculum active 2014 - 2016
  3. Professional Development Workshops active 2012 - 2016

Join the e-mail list

Joining the InTeGrate email list will keep you in the loop with project announcements and news. This is an important step to becoming involved with the InTeGrate project, as the most up-to-date information will be available. Announcements for each opportunity will be also posted on this website and NAGT members will automatically receive project announcements.

Introductory Geoscience/ Environmental Science Modules

The current call for authors for Introductory Geoscience and Environmental Science Modules has passed. Check back in Spring 2013 for the next call for authors. The new themes for Year 2 will be advertised in Fall 2012.

Call for Geoscience Literacy Exam reviewers

The Geoscience Literacy Exam (GLE) is one of many instruments being developed by the InTeGrate Assessment Team to evaluate the effectiveness of InTeGrate teaching materials on student learning. The GLE will specifically address Earth, Climate, and Ocean Science literacies. Please apply if you are interested in reviewing the GLE questions prior to use with students.
