The Board on Science Education is continuing its 20th Anniversary monthly celebrations by focusing on education in informal (i.e. outside of school) contexts, specifically looking at the impacts and implications of the 2009 consensus report Learning Science in Informal Environments: People, Places, and Pursuits. Attendees will hear from members of the informal science education community on the enduring legacy of the “Strands of Science Learning” framework, as well as the current state science education in informal environments.
