During the week of May 13th, the CO2 level at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii topped 400 ppm repeatedly. Daily levels of CO2 can vary due to weather, and there are seasonal trends as well.
Presenting at a NESTA Share-a-Thon
Presenting at a share-a-thon is not the same as a "talk" in front of your colleagues. Instead, share-a-thon attendees circulate through the session (of 1 hour duration), coming by a table and chair that NESTA provides presenters. This gives you a brief opportunity to share your activity with attendees, explaining how it works and your experience with students, and also to get to know your colleagues a bit. Share-a-thons are typically attended by close to 250 teachers at a national meeting. The environment has been variously described as a round robin, a flea market, and a feeding frenzy!
If you are interested in presenting at one or more of our upcoming Share-a-thons, please apply here, and we will be in touch with you soon. Share-a-thons provide a great opportunity to share your activities at a national share-a-thon and simultaneously have a chance to meet an extended group of your colleagues in a professional meeting setting. Some school administrators are more likely to agree to allow you to attend the conference if you are a presenter, so this can also be a good way to attend an NSTA meeting
