The Consumers Guide to Afterschool Science Resources contains reviews of high-quality, hands-on science content for afterschool programs. Developers began by asking afterschool practitioners to recommend programs or materials that they themselves had used or seen in action. A panel of afterschool and science content experts then carefully reviewed the resources identified as most promising.
Reviewed materials include semester and year long curricula, activity kits, instructor guides consisting of many related activities, and Web sites that offer content appropriate for afterschool programs. Users of this guide are able to search and sort entries by title, subject, grade level, audience, and cost. A brief description of each resource is accompanied by two expert reviewers' detailed commentary.
