About Cosmos in the Classroom 2010

We will gather in one of the most pleasant cities in the U.S. to consider how we can do a better job with the introductory astronomy course and learn from some of the outstanding astronomy professors and instructors in the country. Much of the symposium will be in the format of small-group sessions, where we will practice effective techniques for reaching students. Participants will include community and small college instructors, university professors, graduate students and postdocs just about to teach their first solo course, advanced high school teachers, and anyone who may be facing a group of non-science majors in the future.
