Power of Physical Science

The Power of Physical Science is a National Science Foundation MSP-Start program designed to 
provide a hands-on enrichment curriculum to science students. We have reviewed the current 
literature in science education and have surveyed local science educators. Five neighboring rural 
school districts in Livingston County are K-12 partners on this project. The K-12 partners will be 
involved in designing and testing a pilot study curriculum that introduces students to issues of energy, 
climate change, and ideas for meeting our nation's future energy needs while safeguarding the 
environment.  Pre- and post-testing will be used to determine the impact of this intervention.
