The National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) is pleased to share the news that several of our publications have been named finalists for the 2013 Association of Educational Publishers Distinguished Achievement Awards. We would like to thank our staff. And more importantly, we’d like to thank the authors, reviewers, and field editors who collaborate with us daily to publish quality materials upon which teachers can rely. We could not bring our award-winning resources to the science education community without their years of experience and willingness to share their time and effort!
