• Resumen

  • Curriculum reform in science and mathematics calls for a new look at using community resources. The national standards in science and mathematics suggest that good programs require access to the world beyond the classroom so students will see the relevance and usefulness of science and mathematics both in and out of school. Incorporating STEM activities into lessons that explicitly involve the local community is a great way to access the world beyond the classroom.
