Dear Colleague,

The Astronomical Society of the Pacific, National Optical Astronomy
Observatories and Association of Science and Technology Centers would like a
few minutes of your time to help us serve you better! We received funding
from the National Science Foundation to develop and offer comprehensive
training and educational materials for SMALL AND MEDIUM SIZE nature and
science centers¹ staff and volunteers. The training and materials aim to
increase understanding of basic astronomy concepts and to help informal
science educators effectively translate cutting-edge astronomy discoveries
in the news.

To access the survey, please click here
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=181771029388.  To make sure this project
meets your needs, we need some information from you in your function as
informal science educator, whether or not you currently include astronomy in
your educational programming.

If you complete the survey by May 4th, your name will be entered to win a
signed copy of Learning from Museums: Visitor Experiences and the Making of
Meaning by John H. Falk and Lynn D. Dierking.

With thanks for your interest and assistance,

Michael Bennett (ASP)
Stephen Pompea (NOAO)
Wendy Pollack (ASTC)
