CAE Tier I Teaching Excellence Workshops for Current and Future Astronomy and Space Science Instructors:

Earlier this week, Coursera officially announced the launch of a teacher professional development category. For those who are not familiar, Coursera is one of the big three websites offering Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC). This new category has been built from partnerships with seven different colleges of education and a number of museums, including the Exploratorium and the American Museum of Natural History. These PD courses are free. For more information, visit http://bit.ly/12lQ03I.

Dear Colleagues,

If you know of informal educators who might be interested in the workshops below, please forward this on to them.

Thanks so much!
