MASER (MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE EDUCATION REFORM) GENERATION II

Introduction

The Internet sites found listed below are the result of work completed by teachers who attended the Generation II: MASER project during the 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001 Summer Workshops.  Workshop participants researched science Internet sites using a set of developed evaluation criteria.  A set of Internet learning activities were found which correlated directly with the Michigan Content Standards and Benchmarks. The result is that teachers and students will be able to use the provided Internet resources as a learning tool to supplement currently available materials.

Listed in the Elementary, Middle School and High School tables found below are links to Internet sites organized under the Science Content  Strands:  Life Science, Physical Science and Earth & Space Science.  Each Internet site is listed under the Science Benchmark that it meets.  Internet sites "New" to the disk this year are marked and sites found by participants to be "Outstanding" are also identified.
