We represent a regional member subset of the International Association for Science Teacher Education (ASTE). Our Mid-Atlantic region officially includes the District of Columbia and the following states: Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia. However, we welcome any science teacher educator outside of those specified areas. Please join our group on Facebook!
As an active region, we meet each fall for a 2-day conference to promote leadership and support for professionals involved in the education and development of teachers of science at all levels. During the conference, we encourage initial work of graduate students, provide a collegial atmosphere for potential collaborations, and share ongoing scholarship/research endeavors. As of 2013, we support a Graduate Student Research award; click here to find details about this award.
