The Wright Center is dedicated to the creation and sharing of novel instructional techniques and interdisciplinary resources for pre-college teachers. Through its fellowships, workshops, seminars, and a variety of public-outreach activities, the Center provides leadership in the training and retraining of science teachers to use innovative methods to stimulate young minds.
To this end, our goals are fivefold:
• to improve the teaching of science in elementary and secondary schools,
• to encourage young people to pursue science as a career,
• to explore innovative methods to communicate new and better ways of teaching science,
• to test and disseminate novel educational products and activities,
• to share the excitement and wonders of science with the public
