Overview
OpenSciEd is a project fiscally sponsored by the National Center for Civic Innovation. OpenSciEd brings together states, curriculum developers, and national science education leaders and experts to create a set of robust, research-based, openly licensed K-12 science instructional materials while also building demand for these materials and support for their implementation. This initiative will address several challenges currently facing science education in the United States, including designing exemplary research-based curricula to meet new standards and supporting high-quality instruction that results in deeper learning outcomes for students.
