The purpose of this grant is to support The Science House as it improves the performance of K-12 students and teachers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics related disciplines. The project will provide support for outreach regional centers which will deliver teacher training and student enrichment programs to NC’s most resource-poor counties including teacher training workshops, technology and laboratory equipment loan programs, year-round teacher support from The Science House staff, student summer camps, and weekend academies. The Science House has provided direct training to 100 middle and high school teachers each year in latest technologies in teaching science and math, including graphing calculators, iMac laptops, LabPro interface, and lab probes.
