Summary<\/h4>\n

In this workshop, we will share a framework to partner with teachers on education research, new avenues to embed geography across the school curriculum, the importance of measuring aspirations of students of all backgrounds to pursue a geography or related career path, and funding possibilities to support education research partnerships. We will then transition into a broader discussion, in which attendees will be encouraged to share their own experiences and raise questions for group consideration. The hands-on portion of the session will guide attendees in developing their ideas within this framework, connect their ideas with other attendees, receive input on key considerations for a strong partnership.<\/p>\n

Meet the Presenters<\/h4>\n
\"\"Coline Dony<\/b>\u00a0is Senior Grants and Project Manager at the American Association of Geographers. She manages sponsored partnerships that support AAG\u2019s mission. To support the sustainability and broadening of the geography discipline, Coline\u2019s research focused on creating educational pathways between middle school and college to be exposed to a geography curriculum that is better aligned with the work of geographers today, and that incorporates more recent concepts such as geocomputational thinking.<\/div>\n
