Teaching Science

By Shay Zeller on Tuesday, May 30, 2006.

The results of a recent national science test show that Granite State students finished near the top of heap. Now education officials are looking at ways to build on that success and keep students on their game. We'll find out more, and we'll hear about a national effort led by Boston's Museum of Science to introduce more engineering and technology education into the curriculum.

Our Guests Are:

Ioannis Miaoulis, President and Director of the Museum of Science, Boston

Jan McLaughlin, Science Consultant to the New Hampshire Department of Education

Bill Church, Teacher of Physics, Physical Science, and Robotics at Littleton High School. Bill is also the 2005-2006 Christa McAuliffe Sabbatical Fellow. He's working on creating a model where elementary school teachers get up to date on technology through mentoring by High School Students.
