I have written, or am interested in writing, a lesson plan related to USGS science. Can I donate my lesson plan to the USGS?
With rare exception, the USGS does not post information or materials unless they are produced in partnership with our agency. You might be able to find a USGS scientist who is interested in working with you to develop a lesson plan, in which case it could become an official USGS product. For more information, contact our Youth and Education in Science (YES) office.
