ASTE offers credit for conference participation every year! You will have the opportunity to earn 1 or 2 credits from the University of Alaska with Facilitator Tammy Morris. This is a terrific opportunity to join with fellow conference attendees to further discussion and share learning. Your hours attending the conference (minimum of 15 hours for 1 credit and minimum of 30 for 2 credits) serve as the base for the class. During the month following the conference, class participants will read related articles and participate in online discussions to enrich the on-site conference experience.

The two standard ASTE classes will extend the ASTE experience for educators with a variety of required readings and topics for online discussions, centering on the theme and strands of the conference. The final project, as usual, will be a self-designed (instructor-approved) project that allows you to practically apply your ASTE learning to your professional role.
