The Scholastic, Inc. Project, Super Science: A Mass Media Program, will launch two classroom science magazines, one for grades 1 - 3, another for grades 4 - 6, with a companion series of computer disks materials. They will stress hands-on and inquiry activities that mix science with reading, math and social studies. The science and technology skills and know-how that students will need as consumers, workers, and citizens will be an important aspect in the development of the project. The student magazines will have teachers guides and a special periodical for early grade teachers. Project staff will use a three-part project team support effort to develop Super Science. First, a panel of leaders in science education will serve as advisors and consultants to ensure the pedagogical soundness; second, administrators and teachers in nine ethnically diverse districts nationwide will help formulate the scope and sequence plan for the magazines and software and will test for class practicality, third, The Triangle Goalition for science and Technology Education will help search out practicing scientists to serve as consultants to assure the scientific validity of the materials. Scholastic Inc. was founded in 1920 with a single publication. The company now publishes 29 classroom magazines for students and 5 professional magazines for teachers and/or supervisors as well as textbooks, paperbacks for students and classroom software. The publishers will invest in excess of $5.2 million during the 4 years development phase and will continue the activities in subsequent years. This proposal was submitted in response to the Program Solicitation, "Programs for Elementary School Science Instruction II," which encourages "troika" partnerships among publishers, school systems, and scientists/science educators.

The Scholastic，Inc.项目，超级科学：大众媒体方案将推出两本课堂科学杂志，一本供1 - 3年级使用，另一本供4 - 6年级使用，并附有一系列计算机磁盘材料。他们将强调实践和探究活动，将科学与阅读、数学和社会研究相结合。学生作为消费者、工人和公民所需要的科学技术技能和专门知识将是该项目发展的一个重要方面。学生杂志将有教师指南和低年级教师的特殊期刊。项目工作人员将使用一个由三部分组成的项目团队支持工作来开发超级科学。首先，科学教育领导人小组将担任顾问和咨询人，以确保教学的合理性;二是由全国九个民族地区的管理人员和教师协助制定杂志和软件的范围和顺序计划，并进行课堂实用性测试，三是科技教育三角计划将帮助寻找实践科学家作为顾问，以确保材料的科学有效性。学术公司成立于1920年，只有一本出版物。该公司目前出版29种学生课堂杂志和5种教师和/或主管专业杂志，以及教科书，学生平装本和课堂软件。出版商将在4年的开发阶段投资超过520万美元，并将在随后的几年中继续开展活动。该提案是为了响应“小学科学教学方案II”的方案征集而提交的，该方案鼓励出版商、学校系统和科学家/科学教育工作者之间的“三驾马车”伙伴关系。
