Rosalind Barnes is the Public Awareness Director for the Partnership for Reform in Science and Mathematics, a 5 year initiative by the University System of Georgia in conjunction with a grant from the National Science Foundation. The purpose of PRISM is to connect high schools and colleges to insure students are achieving in math and science by changing the way teachers teach so that learing is interesting and students are motivated.
We have known for years that American students are falling behind China and India when it comes to Math and Science. It is so bad the government is apparently increasing funding for math and science!
Imagine that! More money for education! I guess my question is, what program did they cut?
Maybe there is hope. Maybe.
