NSTA Position Statements

 

NSTA is the dedicated voice for science educators and professionals committed to best practices in teaching science and STEM and its impact on student learning.

To represent the concerns and interests of our diverse body of members, NSTA requires a voice that is identifiable, influential, and informed. This aim is achieved in part through taking positions on matters related to science, STEM, and education. Position statements provide a platform for NSTA to inform stakeholders of the science educator perspective. This advocacy tool serves as a guiding document, helping to raise the profile of the science teaching profession, promoting respect, and ensuring investment that supports equitable, high-quality science education.
