As if…
…you needed any more email.
I’m not sure if any of you know of this resource or not, but SUNY Oneonta runs some really excellent email listservs as a community resource for teachers (primarily in New York State, but not limited). I have my email client set to dump emails from this listserv into a specific folder and then I read it when I get a chance. The Earth Science list community is very strong and has over a thousand members on the list, but the other subjects are a bit less active. Still, it’s a great electronic resource for all sorts of things from labs to State Ed. administrivia. This has been one of the most enduring professional development routes I have ever taken and it always provides lots of food for thought. Plus, it has allowed me to network across the state and create some cultural capital with other science educators.
Some more info on listserves here.

I signed up for two of them. Have I mentioned how much I love listservs?
