Updated June 27, 2007.

Pre-service and in-service teachers join NCED research teams to work on specific research projects. Educators become integral members of the research teams, participating at the level of an undergraduate intern. Teams of pre-service and in-service teachers and NCED graduate students create classroom-ready activities which are tested in the classrooms of the participating educators and other local schools. The activities are evaluated, collected, and then broadly disseminated through NCED and Science Museum of Minnesota school outreach programs. ESTREAM application
