National Science Foundation
The Department and the National Science Foundation. (NSF) are working in a partnership to improve mathematics and science teaching in elementary and secondary schools. A major research and development effort, NSF's MSP program responds to concern over the performance of the nation's children in mathematics and science. Institutions of higher education - their disciplinary faculty in departments of mathematics, the sciences, and/or engineering, education faculty and administrators - partner with K-12 districts and others to effect deep, lasting improvement in K-12 mathematics and science education.
Math and Science Partnership Nework (MSPnet) is funded by the National Science Foundation. MSPnet provides nested, interactive learning communities for NSF's Math Science Partnership Project. MSPnet encourages expression of divergent views and the sharing of both successes and challenges in order to create a community of learners who will collectively be enriched by the experiences of individual MSPs throughout the country.
