APEGGA Mega Page
A New Look for the Millennium
It will be a fresh look at the professions for students, parents and teachers
when they visit the APEGGA Mega Page,
located on the APEGGA website. It is
currently undergoing a design overhaul. When completed in mid-February,
the Mega Page will:
- provide information on the professions for students interested in
pursuing engineering and geoscience careers:
- feature hands-on science challenges for teachers to use in classrooms
or students to try at home;
- introduce two new features - "Ask an Expert", where we'll
answer frequently asked questions about the professions, and "A
Day in the Life", where APEGGA members will provide brief glimpses
into a day in their life on the job - what's interesting, what's new,
what students might want to know if they're interested in a job like
theirs!
- demonstrate real and relevant ways of how engineering, geology and
geophysics touches the lives of Albertans every day, providing economic
benefits and adding to the quality of life.
- provide links to other cool science sites
The APEGGA Mega Page is a communications initiative to raise awareness
of the professions and promote awareness of science and technology for
students, teachers and parents.
