Description:

The Science House, NCSU, is conducting a STEM To Your Doorstep Professional Development session for K-16 STEM teachers at the Coastal Satellite Office!

Do you need free equipment, technology, and support for your science, math, and CTE courses? The Coastal Office of The Science House, NC State University, offers a free equipment loan program for teachers! We have laptops, digital microscopes, kits, and Vernier probeware such as temperature sensors, motion detectors, force sensors, water quality kits, weather kits, physiology kits and so much more! All you need to participate in the loan program is a little training on how to use the equipment!
