NSTA has partnered with a national research firm and we need your help with a brief study on how teachers respond to urgent, science-related issues like Ebola.
As you know, K-12 teachers are critical to providing students with accurate and timely information about health-related issues. But researchers want to know:
- How exactly do teachers respond when important and urgent issues like Ebola emerge?
- How do teachers decide whether to address these issues in their teaching?
- What types of resources do teachers draw on to design instruction?
Regardless of whether you’ve taught about Ebola, your help is needed. Please take 5 minutes to register for the survey.
Our goal is to have over 3,000 science teachers –including elementary teachers—participate. The results will be announced, and will inform how science teachers respond to Ebola and other urgent and emerging health issues in the future. All teachers who register and complete a survey will be entered into a drawing for cash awards.
Thank you for your participation.
Sincerely,
Juliana Texley
NSTA President, 2014-2015
