The National Marine Educators Association


The National Marine Educators Association (NMEA) brings together those interested in the study and enjoyment of the world of water - both fresh and salt. Affiliated with the National Science Teachers Association and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, NMEA provides a valuable focus for marine and aquatic studies worldwide. Member professionals have training in Education, Science, Business, Government, Museums, Aquariums, and Marine Research. NMEA Members receive two publications: CURRENT: The Journal of Marine Education and NMEA News. Local chapters are grouped by states, which surround commonly shared bodies of water. Information is posted about the annual meeting of the National Marine Educators Association (NMEA). A bulletin board service allows site browsers to make and read relevant announcements. A listserv service, Scuttlebutt, provides a forum for marine educators to communicate informally about marine education ideas, issues, and questions. There is also a scholarship program which assists members in attending the Annual Conference. Links at this site transfer to the National Ocean Sciences Bowl and the Bridge, and Ocean Sciences Education Teacher Resource Center.
