Welcome! The Education Working Group (EdWG) was formed in 2013 to explore the intersections between public lab tools & activities and formal educational environments & grade-specific curriculum standards. Membership in this group is open to all, and largely consists of teachers, professors, as well as people with an interest in education, including the staff of the non-profit arm of Public Lab.

Welcome to the education working group of the Public Laboratory.

One of our main goals is to align K-12 state curricular objectives with Public Lab tools.

Our first steps to this end include
 - education calls
 - researching state curricular objectives
 - modifying our Public Lab instructions to be both grade level appropriate and align with state objectives

Please join this group to get involved.
