DescSupporting Teachers: Our Supporting Teachers program worked to provide professional development opportunities to teachers around the country focused on its newly minted lesson sets that help students resolve common misconceptions about climate change, evolution, and the nature of science. NCSE staff presented at large-scale conferences hosted by groups such as the National Association of Biology Teachers and the National Science Teaching Association, as well as at the local school and district level. Simultaneously, the program began refining its lesson sets into modular, easily-digestible, and more flexible units of practice called Story Shorts. The first set of Story Shorts, focused on climate change, will debut in 2024. Additionally, the program began developing a set of ?Teacher Toolkit? resources designed to guide teachers towards improved pedagogical practices, particularly in the science classroom. The program also continued to send its monthly educator newsletter with resources and other items of interest to more than 6,000 subscribers.Desc

In 2021, we continued to send our monthly e-newsletter, which had a subscriber list of about 25,000. We also email a quarterly digital publication to our supporters, Reports of the National Center for Science Education. The high-production, 16-page PDF includes news about our programs, our members, and other articles of interest. NCSE?s work was featured in external media such as The Washington Post, Science, Scientific American, and The New York Times. We ended the year with 160,000 Facebook and 46,000 Twitter followers.Desc
