Effecting Change in Sciecne Educaiton

When I ask my self what can be done on the state, district, and school level to ensure all student are  experiencing high-quality science instruction.  Currently , my state offer Alabama Science In Motion for highschool students. The also offer Alabama Math and Science Initiative for elementary and middle school.  However, the program is limited to only a few schools. As a result, I am force to find other ways to insure that may students are give the same high quiality science instruction. One resource that I use is the local power company.  The power company provides STEM based learning kit to educators free of charge to use on a two week bases in the classroom. I also use lesson plan found on the ISTEM education website to help me come up with STEM related lesson plans.  However, because of the lack of funding for the classroom I will try to implement more virtual labs in the classroom seting. This process limit the need for funds and allows me to use one computer , a projector, and screen if needed.
