Getting Ready for Year of Science 2009

The Coalition on the Public Understanding of Science (COPUS) Year of Science 2009 is a great resource for lifelong learners and offers a way for us to get involved in the promotion of science in our society.

Don't miss the COPUS Blog. And you can sign up for updates from COPUS.

Also, launching in October 2008 is Understanding Science at the University of California at Berkeley. According to Understanding Science, speaking of the first phase of this project, "This content will be appropriate for teachers themselves and for the general public and will clarify what science is, how it works, and misconceptions about science. Concepts will be illustrated with both historical and modern exemplars."

Looks like something to keep an eye through the Year of Science.
