NMEA is excited to feature multiple opportunities at the 2027 National Science Teaching Association (NSTA) National Conference March 17-20, 2027 in Boston, Massachusetts!

Our Marine Education Pathway will offer a curated series of presentations designed to highlight innovative approaches in ocean and aquatic science education. The ever-popular Whale of a Share-a-Thon will showcase NMEA members and chapters sharing engaging lessons, hands-on activities, and classroom-ready resources with hundreds of educators right on the exhibit floor. And you can also find NMEA in the Exhibit Hall all week as part of the Marine Zone in the NSTA Exhibit Hall, where we’ll be connecting with participants, sharing resources, and spreading the word about NMEA and ocean literacy.

Join us at NSTA Boston27, “Charting New Horizons, Inspiring Discovery,” and connect with a community of educators united by curiosity and a shared commitment to student success. Through inspiring sessions, immersive experiences, and meaningful connections, you'll discover fresh perspectives and practical strategies to advance teaching and learning. Be sure to make NMEA part of your conference experience!
