One of Chapter Leaders called me this morning to ask about the NSTA Communities. I wanted to share the highlights of our conversation with the CAG Blog.

• Did you know that the NSTA Communities site contains many smaller communities?
• These smaller communities, called groups, have formed around their own purpose. For example; subject matter, issues, event, etc.
• You can join as many groups as you want!
• It’s a great way to share your knowledge and obtain support from other science professionals.
• If you don’t find a group that addresses your specific needs, you can create your own group!

To join this forum of science educators, visit www.nsta.org/communities. You will be asked to log in to the website and create a short profile. It only takes a couple of minutes. Once you have created your profile, you will be matched with other like-minded professionals and you can join the groups you want or create a new one!
Please keep the great ideas coming. Post a comment below or e-mail me at aodonnell@nsta.org and share with your fellow leaders. Remember, the success of this blog is dependent on your participation!
