Testimonials & Awards

As you know, our Nebraska "Keep Improving Content Knowledge and Skills" (KICKS) Institutes are designed to increase teachers’ mastery of science concepts and skills. We have found that Science Objects and SciPacks are the best-received on-line resource to accomplish that goal. Teachers like the accessibility, format, visuals, interactive simulations, and knowledge checks. We like the ability to provide a resource to our teachers to provide opportunities to increase their content knowledge throughout the school year.
