Each year following the OSTA Fall Staff Development Conference we survey participants and ask, among other things, why they attend. Year after year one of the top reasons given is “networking”.
Indeed, meeting with other science teachers to share insight, experiences, and understandings is powerful reason to join a professional organization, be it OSTA, NSTA, NABT or myriad other science and education groups.
OSTA has maintained Facebook and Twitter accounts for several years and also maintains a members-only forum up on the MemberClicks site.
We have now established a new Facebook Groups site so you can extend the conference networking experience. Click the link below and you too can be in on the ground floor of the newest OSTA offering.
