HippoCampus.org is a free, core academic web site that delivers rich multimedia content–videos, animations, and simulations–on general education subjects to middle-school and high-school teachers and college professors, and their students, free of charge. Teachers project HippoCampus content during classroom learning and assign it for computer labs and homework. Students use the site in the evenings for study and exam prep.
Provided by the National Partnerships for After School Science (NPASS), tools and articles provided here describe a model for how to engage out-of-school activity leaders in professional development around science and engineering activities for youth.
San Fransisco’s Exploratorium offers resources, tools, and projects that help ignite curiosity and learning in scientific fields.
Engineering is Elementary provides curriculum and professional development for teachers and parents to inspire their students to develop engineering literacy.
Provided by the National Center for Education Research, the goal of this practice guide is to formulate specific and coherent evidence-based recommendations that educators can use to encourage girls in the fields of math and science. The target audience is teachers and other school personnel with direct contact with students, such as coaches, counselors, and principals. The practice guide includes specific recommendations for educators and the quality of evidence that supports these recommendations.

The Dayton Regional STEM Center provides resources, curriculum, and innovative ideas to teachers for creatively implementing better STEM practices into their classroom.
At Cool Science, we entertain questions of all kinds (Ask a Scientist). We encourage young scientists to get their hands dirty-virtually (Curious Kids). We offer high school and college students new approaches to cutting-edge science topics (BioInteractive). We provide educators with a host of innovative resources they can use in their classrooms (For Educators). We reveal what it takes to become a scientist (Becoming a Scientist). And we showcase an undergraduate science discovery project that may one day change the way science is taught (SEA).
It designs lessons around real-world industry themes, engaging students through both challenging academic and demanding instruction.
Join the initiative to connect young people to after-school opportunities that inspire them to develop the importance science, technology, engineering and math skills they need to become the problem solvers of tomorrow.
Teachers can use this website to create a portal for their classroom and implement it among students to give them more access to information and helpful curriculum.
Devoted to improving PreK-12 STEM learning, Change the Equation provides the latest in STEM research and articles, a STEM program database, as well as a comprehensive overview of each state’s progress in STEM education.
