The National Alliance of State Science & Mathematics
Coalitions (NASSMC) Briefing Service

The NASSMC Briefing Service is an Internet-based information resource that provides brief, timely, formatted summaries of important science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education issues addressed in the national press. Each Briefing Service entry is categorized using one of twelve keywords/phrases that best indicates the focus of the news item.

• Assessment and Accountability
• Business Role in Education
• Content Standards
• Curriculum Materials
• Education Policy
• Opinion/Editorial
• Postsecondary Education
• Professional Development
• Public Understanding and Engagement
• School Staffing and Governance
• Studies and Reports
• Teacher Preparation (including recruitment and mentoring)

A searchable database of all briefs posted since February 1999 is available at http://notes.nassmc.org/nbsfile.nsf

As a service, OMSC compiles five current briefs at a time and sends a summary to interested coalition members.

If you'd like to have the compiled briefs sent to you electronically, please email jamie.milne@ideastream.org
