May i also request if you are planning to apply for this, please do let me or Charlie Schweik know, so we can keep a track of developments. This is a key educational strategic objective to make sure students get broader geospatial education and knowledge , so please contribute if you are able to.

Best wishes,

Suchith

btw Charlie - with your newly recieved grant for developing WebGIS courses, do you think there are synergies to be build with AAG esp. on teacher training?

Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] Inputs needed from Open Geo community for AAG New      AP Course in GIS&T

Hi all,

AAG is seeking proposals for Authors, Reviewers for thier new AP Course in GIS&T (Thanks to Adena Schutzberg  for informing me about this opportunity)

We need to make sure Open Source, Open Standards, Open Data in Geospatial Education is clearly inputted into this course and i request esp. our US colleagues to take lead for this. GeoAcademy's work can give us momentum for this.

To apply for consideration as a proposal author and/or reviewer, please submit a short (250-word maximum) statement of interest and a current resume/CV to Dr. Michael Solem, AAG Director of Educational Research and Programs, at msolem [at] aag [dot] org by June 15, 2015. Proposal authors and reviewers will receive a stipend to support their work.

Applications are sought from AP teachers, faculty from all-types of postsecondary institutions (2-year and 4-year undergraduate, master’s and research-doctoral), instructional design specialists and GIS industry professionals with interests in GIS education.

GENIP will review applications and make final selections for the AP GIS&T writing and review committees by July 10. The first face-to-face meeting of the proposal writing committee will be held during the NCGE Annual Conference in Washington, DC (August 6-9, 2015).
