Strengthening the Links to Systemic Reform

摘要

The National Alliance of State Science and Mathematics Coalitions (NASSMC) proposal of a project to engage the NASA's Industry Education Initiative (NIEI) members in the reform of mathematics, science, and technology education is presented. This is at levels that will significantly increase the impact of NIEI members' effort on the long-term, system-wide reform of education. Actions to meet the goal included the development of a presentation on Mathematics, Science, and Technology Education (MSTE) appropriate for the corporate community, delivery of the presentation to NIEI members, and the performance of appropriate follow-up activities. Results of two meetings of the state coalition, NIEI affiliates, and representatives from NASA's Space Grant Consortium are included as an attachment.
