A great opportunity to preview AMS Educational Materials, talk to professors who have implemented AMS courses, and become part of the K-12 AMS Educator Community is to visit our booth at national and regional meetings for major scientific, professional and educator societies. The AMS Education Program seeks to encourage participation by institutions and individuals new to our programs, and participating in these meetings allows us remain visible within the nationwide network of Earth science education experts, educators and scientists.
