SXSW EDU 2022
Making Science Education Stronger, More Equitable
Description:
Numerous national studies have found that U.S. science education is insufficient and deeply inequitable – threatening the competitiveness of the U.S. in the global economy. As of 2019, more than a quarter of 4th graders and a third of 8th graders failed to meet even basic achievement on the NAEP science test. Join us for a discussion on the current state of science education and the impact of recent initiatives.
