Learning Science By Doing Science

The National Science Resources Center (NSRC) was established in 1985 by the Smithsonian Institution and the National Academies. Its mission is to improve the learning and teaching of science for all students in the United States and throughout the world.                                                                            >More

School districts that have implemented research-based science education programs based on the NSRC Theory of Action can point to improved student performance in science.                                                                           >Impact of our work, and research.
