The Asheville satellite office serves math and science teachers in Buncombe County and Asheville City Schools as well as in surrounding areas. Our goal is to create a community of teachers and schools who use technology to improve the teaching of science and mathematics. The office is housed at The Health Adventure, a science museum in downtown Asheville.
With generous funding from the Department of Education, middle school science and math teachers will have access to training and equipment including laptops, graphing calculators, and a variety of probes. The use of such equipment promotes inquiry exploration and helps students see technology as a tool for learning.
