Massachusetts Science Standards Changed in 2015
Are you up to speed? If not, we can help! Our School of Education offers science coursework for graduate credit at an affordable price that can help faculty at the elementary and middle school levels understand and incorporate the new Massachusetts standards for science in school curricula.
For elementary classroom teachers, our elementary science course represents a hybrid blend of online and seated coursework that has been fully aligned to the new Massachusetts Science Standards for 2015.
