Goals of the ASTA
By Teresa Fuller Send E-mail
In this time when science standards are being rewritten at a national level, it is important to for ASTA to reach out to members to provide the most up to date information. I would encourage our members to reach out their colleagues to join ASTA so that all science teachers in the state will have this information available for there use as well. This is an important time to be part of your professional organization.
It’s time for our organization to reach out to a new generation. As a science organization we must move more into the use of technology.
My goals for 2011 are:
- Update the ASTA website to give it a more modern feel
- Include on the website a way to join and pay electronically
- Change the bylaws to allow for online voting by all members
- Add online voting to the website for those that are unable to attend the statewide conference in November
- Move our newsletter to an online version
I feel these goals will open our organization up to a new generation and make it easier for science teachers to join and be active in our organization. They will also help us as an organization be more green.
