Science Education and Outreach

We equip teachers with the knowledge and resources they need to accurately teach evolution, climate change, and the nature of science.

NCSE staff provide professional learning opportunities that are responsive to local context and are customizable to meet your teachers’ needs. Our professional development is focused on giving your teachers the expertise to help their students overcome common misconceptions about climate change, evolution, and the nature of science.

Our professional development is based on curricular units designed and tested by teachers called Story Shorts and on a robust pedagogical Teacher Toolkit.
