New for 2009!
AAAS Project 2061 is offering a unique professional development workshop designed specifically for informal science
educators, *Using Atlas of Science Literacy in Informal Science Learning Settings* For some new perspectives on making your programs and exhibits more relevant to K-12 teachers and students, join us in Chicago, March 11-13 at the Museum of Science and Technology (MOSI), for a new workshop designed especially for science center and museum staff
who work with school-based audiences.
You will learn how to use the Atla of Science Literacy strand maps and other Project 2061 resources to view your programs and exhibits through a new lens. Project 2061*s two-volume Atlas is an innovative resource that presents nearly 100 strand maps that display conceptual connections among the ideas and skills that all students should learn as they make progress toward science literacy. Project 2061 was founded in 1985 by the American Association for the
Advancement of Science (AAAS) to help all Americans become literate in science, mathematics, and technology.
Scholarships and Early Bird rates are available, but registration is limited. For more details and a
