Quantum project: Supporting Our Educators

SciFusion's mission is to bridge the gap between the exponential growth of science discovery and science education by providing teachers with the tools to incorporate emerging science fields into their curriculum.

SciFusion seeks to transform the way students view and do science, and prepare them to enter the workforce pipeline feeding today's knowledge-based economy.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that employment in math and science jobs in the US will increase from approximately 6.77 million jobs in 2006 to 7.98 million jobs in 2016. This is an increase of 17.8% in approximately 790 different job titles.

To help you prepare students for these jobs, SciFusion offers:

Over 70 highschool-level textbooks on science, technology, engineering and math written by experts in their respective fields.
Free classroom activities and teaching materials from prestigious organizations from around the United States.
