Just as science education doesn’t stop at the schoolhouse door, neither should effective application of the National Science Education Standards. Exemplary Science in Informal Education Settings features 17 "informal" education programs that were judged to be the most successful at increasing participants' learning. The programs demonstrated how the National Science Education Standards can be used to inform and improve science education in a wide range of settings with learners ranging from preschool to older adults. Share in the vision for science education reform through real world examples outside the classroom and in everyday living, and see proven results.
