Science Education Advocate Awards
Washington State LASER, with support from The Boeing Company, is announcing the second Science Education Advocate Awards .
The awards will be presented to five individuals, organizations, and/or project teams who have exhibited outstanding advocacy for science education in the state of Washington by promoting the importance of science education among the general public and/or the education system. This includes, but is not limited to, engaging new and more diverse participants and investors in science education, influencing others to act in support of science education, enabling science education reform to proceed and/or increasing the visibility for the importance of a scientifically literate society.
The intent of the Science Education Advocate Awards is to recognize and raise public awareness of advocacy across the broadest possible spectrum of science education efforts. Efforts at all levels of science education - including early learner, K-12, vocational, undergraduate, graduate, adult, and informal/public science education - are eligible for consideration. Eligible contributions may be made at local, regional, or state levels within Washington. Nationally-based science education advocates must have effected discernable enhancements specifically within Washington State to be eligible for the award.
