Education is now a core mission of NASA. Other funding agencies are increasingly insistent that researchers become scientist-educators. This trend is reflected in the growing integration of education and public outreach (E/PO) efforts within research proposals of all scales. Given little guidance apart from a budget cap, scientists can often be confused regarding the appropriate audience, content, and scale of E/PO proposals.
Opened to the public in 1930 as the first planetarium in the western hemisphere, the Adler Planetarium & Astronomy Museum has inspired generations of explorers through innovative astronomy education. The Adler has a long history of successfully working with outside partners on E/PO programs, and we are enthusiastic about developing new partnerships to improve astronomy education.
As part of these efforts, we will present a comprehensive source of information on the Adler's unique strengths and resources, along with a template for proposing E/PO partnerships with the Adler. The two-way exchange of information will aid in setting realistic and realizable goals for the E/PO effort, and help both parties decide whether the partnership is something they want to pursue. This service will be available online through a link on the Adler website at www.adlerplanetarium.org.
