Science for All Americans This landmark publication is the cornerstone of Project 2061's efforts to reform the K-12 science, mathematics, and technology curriculum. Science for All Americans defines science literacy, outlining what all high school graduates should know and be able to do in these closely related domains. |
|
Benchmarks for Science Literacy This 1993 publication outlines the progress that students can be expected to make toward science literacy by the ends of grades 2, 5, 8, and 12. |
|
Teaching Guides for Special Topics Drawing on Project 2061’s Science for All Americans, Benchmarks for Science Literacy, and Atlas of Science Literacy, these guides support teachers as they convey core science concepts to students and build their own knowledge about important topics like evolution, global climate change, and the nature of science. The guides describe what science-literate adults should know about these special topics and then show how students work toward that knowledge as they move from kindergarten through high school. |
|
Resources for Science Literacy: Professional Development This is Project 2061’s first CD-ROM tool and the first professional development tool in science to focus on standards-based teaching and learning. Resources offers a wide array of materials designed to provide educators with a deeper understanding of how to help their students achieve science literacy. |
|
Blueprints for Reform These summaries of a dozen concept papers address areas of the education system that need to change to make Project 2061’s vision of science literacy for all students a reality. |

Literacy, Volumes 1 and 2
This collection of nearly 100 conceptual strand maps shows
how students’ understanding of the ideas and skills that lead
to literacy in science, mathematics, and technology might
develop from kindergarten through high school.
