Who We Are: Science Buddies is part of an emerging revolution in K-12 education, directly reaching millions of students, parents, and teachers with resources that reflect the latest research in how to effectively teach science. Filling a gap in traditional resources, we offer completely unique tools and content not available from any other source, whether non-profit or commercial. ★ Highly personalized, we empower students to create individualized learning paths with easy-to-use tools that provide science and engineering projects, frameworks, and guidance. ★ Our real-world, hands-on explorations are not only the best way to teach science, they make the subject relevant to students, positively impacting academic achievement and nurturing student interest in science. We expose students to career opportunities and role models that can translate to economic power both for the individual and for communities. ★ Open access and freely available, we reach all students, demonstrably providing resources to disadvantaged students, schools, and families. We make science literacy possible for everyone.
