Nevada Mathematics Project is a collaborative statewide mathematics initiative to improve math and science instruction and student achievement in Nevada. We are currently supporting over 140 teachers from the state of Nevada to improve math instruction and develop math and science leaders this year. We supported over 120 teachers last year and 106 the previous years. Over the past three years this project has directly impacting over approximately over 12,600 nevada students!.
Ford Motor Company was born in the imagination of a young man with a big vision. Henry Ford changed the way the world moved. A century later Ford is still all about innovation – whether it’s advancing the cars of today or reimagining the way the world moves tomorrow. That’s why Ford supporst the STEAM initiatives that grow smart kids who will have what it takes to show us what’s next.
The Concord Consortium hosts a vast number resources from research in science, mathematics, and engineering education to teacher ready resources for discipline specific instruction. Lessons, aligned to the new science standards, include online simulations and student directions. These resources are offered open source and free of charge.
The Education Development Center (EDC) is developing, field-testing, and disseminating professional development materials for mathematics teachers in grades 6-12. These materials highlight connections between important mathematics, effective teaching practices, and the implementation of innovative instructional materials for students.
This STEM site has tools that can help you teach science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). We are currently focused on supporting the teaching of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
Next Generation Science Standards - is an updated approach to teaching science that reflects our modern world.
PHet - An interactive simulations site hosted by the University of Colorado, Boulder. Educators can provide access to student-friendly, scientifically, and mathematically appropriate simulations. In these simulations the students (or teacher if a demo) can manipulate variables and run multiple experiments.
Developed by the Success for All Foundation, PowerTeaching Math is an instructional approach that links Common Core, state standards, and school curricula to research-proven instructional strategies and classroom resources that promote rigor and student engagement.
Science Buddies - Everything teachers need to plan, manage, and evaluate a science fair or science project in the classroom.
