 The "i3 LASER Model in North Carolina" project will support science education reform work in North Carolina and is part of the $1.5 million match needed to leverage $6 million in federal funds.

The LASER Model will be used by the NC Science, Mathematics, and Technology Education Center and the National Science Resource Center to provide a systemic approach to science education reform. The program will provide educational leadership development for school administrators, teachers, and corporate and community leaders. 1,000 North Carolina teachers will receive high-quality, content-specific professional development and research-based science education instructional materials to drive experiential, hands-on learning for the benefit of 25,000 of North Carolina's children.
