STEM Teaching Tools, maintained by the University of Washington's Institute for Science + Math Education, is designed to help STEM educators develop a toolbox of instructional approaches that meet the Next Generation Science Standards. In the Tools Section of the website, educators can browse a number of Practice Briefs addressing common educator questions and topics. Some questions include "How can I get my students to learn science by productively talking to each other?" and "How can we promote equity in science education?" Instructional suggestions, activity ideas, and links to other resources are also provided with each Brief. This website is continually updated with new instructional ideas and resources, so readers should check back frequently.
