Technology Enhanced Activity Modules for Science (TEAMS)

Project Overview

Welcome to the Technology Enhanced Activity Modules for Science (TEAMS) Project. This National Science Foundation (NSF) supported initiative at Kennesaw State University (KSU) is designed to increase student learning in science and close achievement gaps by raising student expectations, improving teacher quality, and developing new models for teaching science in college courses for early childhood education majors. This project creates unique opportunities for pre-service and in-service teachers to implement inquiry-based science through activities that are designed to rekindle curiosity and build understanding.

These technology enhanced activities coordinate with the new grade-level Georgia Performance Standards and the program provides class sets of all the necessary materials so that participating teachers can effectively implement these activities. Through their active exploration and investigation, our teachers (and their students) will build a deeper understanding, appreciation, and love for science.

Support for this project is provided by the Course, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement Program of the National Science Foundation (NSF) through award 0442892.
