... NASA's formal and informal education projects are rooted in educational research on best practices, conducted with rigorous evaluation, and strongly aligned with national science standards based on the recommendations contained in the report of the NRC's Committee on a Conceptual Framework for New K-12 Science Education Standards. 4 These programs are built around coordinated collaborations between education professionals, scientists, and engineers working together on mission teams that can then effectively work with the teachers and students in the classroom.

It is especially important that funding remain where the science is -- in the Science Mission Directorate and the NASA Centers.
