National Leaders Speak Out on Transforming Science, Math Education

NSTA Reports, June 11, 2009

U.S. science and math communities “need to work hand-in-hand” with colleges and universities, businesses, federal and state government, donors, and other organizations to reform science and math education, said Phillip Griffiths, chair of the Carnegie Corporation of New York-Institute for Advanced Study Commission on Mathematics and Science Education. At a June 10 event to launch the commission’s new report on this subject, representatives from these groups shared a common theme: America must “do school differently” to achieve reform, and now is the optimal time.
