Welcome ISTEM Pilot Teachers!

August 17th, 2010

We are delighted and honored to be included as an ISTEM pilot curriculum, and are looking forward to working with you to ensure you have a really great pilot experience this fall.

To make sure that happens, we have asked one of our core authors and our Director of Operations, Belinda Basca, to be on hand during the course of your pilot, serving as your resource for all things Science Companion. You will be hearing from her via email.

We’ve also created a Science Companion website specific for Indiana — you’ll find everything you need there.
