Potential Agenda Items for Tuesday, November 8th
Agenda:.
The ESIP Executive Committee has requested that each committee chair review your committee's purpose in the current ESIP bylaws. The ExCom will discuss if all standing committees are needed moving forward and if we need to clarify names, purposes of these groups.
Here are the bylaws for Education:
Section 6 - Standing Committee for Education
V.6.1 The ESIP Federation shall include a Standing Committee for Education. Its purpose is to make accessible to educators and learners at all levels in both formal and informal educational contexts the Earth science data, information, tools, and curricula available within the ESIP Federation. Its roles are:
a. To promote and facilitate the development and dissemination of Earth science educational products, information, and tools to a broad user community using the wealth of Earth science data and expertise available in the ESIP Federation.
b. To promote and facilitate the collaboration of multiple ESIP’s to develop educational applications of Earth science data products, information, and tools
c. To provide a central organization for ESIP Federation educational materials to facilitate and standardize dissemination/distribution
