The Life Discovery Partners are pleased to invite you to submit a proposal to 
present at our 3rd Life Discovery – Doing Science Education 
conference.  We are looking for presentations on the following thematic tracks:
•   Connect learning to life science careers in research and practice: What 
is it like to be a Biologist?
•   Connect learning to current events: What is the relevance of Biology?
•   Connect learning across institutions and settings: How do we build 
bridges across education settings?

High school through college instructors, informal science educators, curriculum 
developers, researchers, technology and data experts, 
department leaders, and local and national leaders are all vitally needed in 
this project and welcome!  We especially encourage teams from 
your institutions and your collaborators to participate and share effective 
teaching and learning strategies. You can select to present a 
Hands-on workshop, a short presentation or lead a discussion at our signature 
Education Share Fair roundtables.
 
The Education Share Fair roundtable format also welcomes those who are testing 
an idea and would like feedback.  

For detailed information about the session formats, session themes and tracks, 
please visit www.esa.org/ldc.
