Science News Learning

At Science News Learning, we’re dedicated to expanding student science literacy across the U.S. by supporting a community of nearly 6,000 middle and high schools and more than 17,000 educators with equitable access to Science News Media Group’s award-winning print and online journalism, an expansive library of ready-to-use lesson plans, each designed to incorporate recent applications in STEM research into core curricula, and STEM literacy professional development opportunities.
