Classroom of the Future to Present to Astronomical Society
CET Fri Oct 1 2004 

Dr. Laurie Ruberg, education outreach specialist at the NASA-sponsored Classroom of the Future and project manager of the Mid-Atlantic Space Science Broker (MARSSB) program coordinated at the Classroom of the Future, has learned that a poster presentation of which she is lead author will be included at the 36th annual American Astronomical Society—Division of Planetary Scientists meeting to be held in Louisville from Nov. 7-12.

The other authors are Dr. Stanley Jones, education outreach director for the Classroom of the Future, and Adam Tarnoff, a design researcher at the Classroom of the Future. Their poster is titled What kinds of support can the broker/facilitator program provide to support scientist involvement in education outreach? The session highlights two examples of ways that the NASA Office of Space Science broker/facilitator program can assist members of the Division of Planetary Sciences who want to be involved in education and public outreach activities.

The conference program is available online at http://www.aas.org/publications/baas/v36n4/dps2004/dps04block.htm. The poster abstract is available at http://www.aas.org/publications/baas/v36n4/dps2004/454.htm.
