 magnetospheres, planetary ionosphere-thermosphere, and space weather. These curricula include intense workshops and summer schools, undergraduate majors or certifications, and curricula for graduate studies. Additionally, a number of resources have become
 available including books, websites, and computer simulations.  Thus, we believe it is timely to hold a session to showcase these resources and current practices. The goals of this session include: (1) identifying populations that participate in space physics
 curricula and highlighting the learning goals for these populations, (2) sharing available teaching materials and best-practices, and (3) sharing evaluation results where appropriate. We seek abstracts related to all types of space physics (and space weather)
 curricula and resources, including undergraduate or graduate course materials, degree programs, summer schools, workshops, textbooks, and online resources.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
