ISE PI Summit 2008 - Discussion Groups

The ISE PI Summit 2008 gathered some of the top leaders and thinkers in the U.S., representing the diversity of informal science education. To leverage this opportunity, time for discussion group sessions were provided such that Summit participants could discuss, share, and innovate with others about (1) current and upcoming projects, as well as (2) how to move the field of informal science education forward. The list of discussion group topics were chosen based on the number of respondents on the 2008 ISE PI Survey (n=108) who offered to lead them.
