 Dear Colleagues,

I'm pleased to announce the 2014-2015 NAGT/Cutting Edge program.
http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/workshops.html

I'd like to highlight the *Earth Educators' Rendezvous, *a new venture that
NAGT and the InTeGrate project are putting together for next summer. We
hope that this will be an exciting week for Earth educators to learn from
one another, network, attend workshops, and generally have fun.  The
program will include workshops of various scales,  as well as a contributed
program of posters and short talks.  Think about Boulder, Colorado in
July! Read
