EdGCM: In Step With National Education Standards

From its inception, the EdGCM project has been proactive in ensuring that its educational goals, objectives and science-research activities are in concert with a large number of national educational standards that have been developed by organizations such as the National Research Council (National Science Education Standards); the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS Project 2061 Benchmarks); the International Society for Technology in Education (National Educational Technology Standards for Students); and the National Council for Geographic Education (National Geography Standards for Students).

The following series of national standards correlations to EdGCM research activities illustrates the wide-ranging congruity of the EdGCM program to these standards.
  1. EdGCM Correlations to National Science Education Standards - Science Content Standards (High School)
  2. EdGCM Correlations to National Science Education Standards - Science Teaching Standards (High School)
  3. EdGCM Correlations to AAAS Project 2061 Benchmarks - Science Content Standards (High School)
  4. EdGCM Correlations to International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) National Educational Technology Standards for Students (High School)
  5. EdGCM Correlations to the National Council for Geographic Education (NCGE) - National Geography Standards for Students (Grades 9 - 12)
