Goal(s) of Meeting
To give a brief overview of the expectations I have of them in the coming year. I also offered myself as a resource for them to use while implementing polar research in their curriculum.

Overview of Session (e.g., resources used, discussion points, next steps, etc.):
I made a list of points I wanted them to be aware of including the benefits of joining the TEA Associates. We discussed possible uses for polar research in their classrooms. They let me know how I can help them down the road.

How did your team address pedagogy, content, the process of science, and the use of technology during the session?
Mostly, we talked about the technology necessary to follow my journals during my research trip. There was little known at the time, so I had to be general.
