Creating a curriculum of differentiated, research-based Algebra materials for classes where some students need significantly more support to succeed. Customizable materials will be refined constantly to meet students' needs. These are not simply lesson plans, or even a new textbook. They are an integrated curriculum of activities, presentations, games, etc.
Our core beliefs: 1). The difference between an okay curriculum and a great one is thousands of hours of meticulous research and revision. 2). Struggling students are more successful, not less so, when they're given complex work that engages their higher-order thinking skills, as long as that work is designed appropriately. An initial project will be to create alternate units to replace weak spots in the Carnegie Learning Algebra I curriculum, including all the supplementary materials to implement the units for students' success.This group is interested in sharing resources, videos, audio, pictures, bookmarked sites in an effort to improve the integration of education worldwide. We can be found on Linkedin and Ning and our thousands of members continue to share with others.
California is pioneering an experiment with free high school digital textbooks. Curriki has two science books -- chemistry and earth science -- in the running, and is calling on science teachers to make these open source books the best they can be. That means you!
New teachers have many challenges and are sometimes left without anyone to guide their questions.

The Greenland Space Science Symposium materials are a joint educational collaboration of the National Institute of Aerospace and Nortel LearniT. Technology-integrated reports via video interviews communicate "What is it like to live in Greenland?" Topical coverage including polar regions, the Earth's magnetic sphere, space weather and magnetosphere, auroras, solar cycles, and solar storms, comparison of Earth to Mars, lesson plans, and blogs showcase how technology can truly enhance classroom materials.
Math for America (MfA) is a nonprofit organization with a mission to improve math education in secondary public schools in the United States by recruiting, training, and retaining outstanding mathematics teachers. This unit was developed collaboratively by a group MfA Master Teachers and Fellows.
Teach science, math, and art with your school building! This curriculum is for teachers who are interested in introducing architecture and design to their science, art, or math class. The curriculum includes lesson plans that will introduce architecture, responsible (socially and ecologically) design, 3-D computer modeling tools used for graphic representation and physical modeling using recycled materials.
