| In this five-year project, CSE is developing a comprehensive high school science curriculum called Foundation Science. It comprises two semesters each of chemistry, physics, biology, and earth science. Schools will be able to sequence the courses to suit the structure of their science programs. Stimulating narratives engage students with problems whose solutions lead to an understanding of major scientific concepts. Hands-on investigations supported by scientific literature help students reach those solutions. Initial materials from this project have been successfully field-tested with a range of student populations throughout the country. |
