✓The International Advisory for Geoscience Diversity (IAGD) is now online at www.TheIAGD.org

Today, very few educators are highly experienced or qualified in the geosciences. This in turn affects the student's understanding and provides opportunities for alternative conceptions. The potential to affect an exponentially vast number of individuals is prevalent when it is the teacher who presents the misconception. Additionally, the demand for professional development opportunities for in-service teachers is growing rapidly with the higher levels of accountability being implemented by the State and Federal Departments of Education. With the impending increase in requirements for secondary science, the geosciences will become a necessary offering. I believe that there is a great need for educators in science education, particularly focusing on the environmental and geosciences. With the current global focus on environmental change and exploration, the development of earth science outreach programs in the K-12 classrooms is more important today than ever before.
