NE Nevada Science Project

Mission Statement

The Northeastern Nevada Science Project (NNSP) provides professional development for teachers grades K-12 in science. Over a three year period teachers will attend three one-week summer institutes providing content information in the three strands of the Nevada State Science Standards. Professors from the University of Nevada, Reno, the Nevada Department of Education, and regional coordinators from the Northeastern Nevada Regional Professional Development program help participants to understand and apply current research in the implementation of inquiry-based instruction in their science classes.

The NNSP is under the direction of Northeastern Nevada Regional Professional Development Program Regional Coordinators, Teresa Noland and Sharon McLean.
