Pre-School Teachers Need Better Training in Science

Image
Preschool instructors appear to lack the knowledge, skills and confidence to effectively teach their young students science – a problem that is likely contributing to America’s poor global performance in this crucially important subject. A  first-of-its-kind study  by Michigan State University researchers found that early childhood educators’ self-reported ability and enjoyment was high for literacy, but much lower for science and math. Further, while 99 percent of preschool teachers engaged in literacy instruction three to four times a week, that figure fell to 75 percent in math and only 42 percent in science. Only 38 percent of U.S. fourth-graders were proficient in science in 2015, according to a  report from the National Assessment of Educational Progress . “Providing quality early-childhood science education is one way to improve the very low science achievement of U.S. elementary school children,” said lead author Hope Gerde , associate professor in MSU’s Department of Human Dev...

Michigan State University has launched a new effort to improve K-12 education for students in the state and nation by delivering objective, timely research findings directly to decision makers. The Education Policy Innovation Collaborative, or EPIC, is focused on building partnerships between researchers and state and school district leaders. EPIC researchers use pioneering data analysis to inform policies related to teacher quality, school turnaround and improvement, school choice, and other key issues at stake in schools and communities. The collaborative is funded in part by a $1.9 million grant from the Laura and John Arnold Foundation. “In keeping with MSU’s land-grant mission, EPIC was created as a new way for us to partner with policymakers across the state of Michigan and ultimately improve education for all kids,” said Joshua Cowen , founding director and associate professor in the MSU College of Education. “We especially hope to provide evidence to inform decisions that affec...
