Results shared on LASER i3 validation study
|
|
| In 2010, the U.S. Department of Education awarded the SSEC a five-year Investing in Innovation (i3) validation grant to evaluate the LASER model’s efficacy in systemically transforming science education. While the grant has ended, the work has not. Partners in all three regions (including North Carolina) are still working to improve STEM education. We encourage you to view the video and provide thoughts and feedback in the public discussion section. |
