The
NASSMC Briefing Service is an Internet-based information resource
that provides brief, timely, crisply-formatted summaries of
important mathematics, science, and technology education (MSTE)
issues addressed in the national press. Through the NASSMC Briefing
Service (NBS) you can receive daily in your email concise summaries
of major news stories related to mathematics and science education.
A
Living Archive of NBS
briefs has been created to let you sample them or find ones
you may have missed. Several databases are available.
NOTE:
Once
you enter any of the databases, you will see at the top a
"Using this NBS File" button, which will take you
to a description of how the file is organized and how to copy
briefs and search all or part of the database. You will also
see a navigator that will let you view specific categories of briefs and an EXIT button that will return you to this page.
The
NASSMC Briefing Service is supported in part by the National Science Teachers Association, National Science Resources Center, Delaware Foundation for Science and Mathematics Education, Maine Mathematics and Science Alliance, and Maryland Mathematics and Science Coalition.

Globe, Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, New York Times,
Wall
Street Journal, and Washington Post) and popular periodicals
(e.g., Chronicle of Higher Education, Education Week, Life,
Newsweek,
and Time), the service is highly selective, issuing at most
three briefs per working day. Click "All NBS Briefs", in
the blue boxes above, to see any NBS Briefs before 2002.
