San Francisco State University's Center for Science and Mathematics Education has been established to address the nation's lack of high quality scientific, technological, engineering and mathematics professionals. The Center's intent is to
   button recruit, prepare, and support good science and mathematics teachers;
   button foster research into science and mathematics education and promote its application; and
   button establish a community of science and mathematics education scholars, practitioners, and students.
three circles of activities The Center has been established on the premise that communication and interaction among science and mathematics educational researchers, teachers who train and support in-service and future science and mathematics teachers, and those who teach science and mathematics at all education levels will generate greater advances in science and mathematics than individual efforts in any one of these areas. To this end, the Center facilitates collaboration among faculty in the Colleges of Education and Science and Engineering, supports the development of innovative science and math curricula and pedagogy, and sponsors programs to disseminate developments in science and mathematics education. The Center provides a lending library of equipment and supplies for local K-12 science and math teachers, and provides a focus for the growing community of science and mathematics educators, including students, teachers and other interested parties. The Center also facilitates the integration of partnership and outreach activities into courses offered by the University, with the intention of inspiring more undergraduates to become committed science and mathematics teachers, and to improve the proficiency of current science and mathematics instructors and faculty, increasing the educational opportunities available to science and mathematics students at every level.
Funds and plans to establish the Center were approved by President Corrigan and Provost and Vice President Gemello in August 2006 in response to a request from faculty in, and the Deans of, the Colleges of Education and Science & Engineering. We invite you to explore our site to learn more about the activities of the Center, and to join our efforts, or to contribute to our work in any way you can.
