Who is Rendezvous for?

Our program is designed to appeal to everyone working in all aspects of undergraduate Earth education, including a mix of college faculty, graduate students, K-12 teachers, informal educators, practitioners, and researchers, as well as administrators who want to better support students in their programs and who are interested in improving their teaching about Earth, whether they are attending their first Earth-education-themed meeting, to experienced STEM professionals. Among many options, participants can learn about new teaching approaches, discover opportunities to get involved in research programs, prepare for an academic career, or discuss how to approach teaching and learning challenges in their classroom.
