Narrator: This is NIH Health Matters. I’m Joe Balintfy. The NIH has developed a program geared to promote science in classrooms.
Easter: The official name is the NIH K-12 LAB Challenge.
Narrator: NIH science education specialist Dr. Carla Easter.
Easter: This is a program that we’ve been working on for the past couple of months to encourage the public to provide their best hands on experiments that folks on K-12 education, so that we can collect these. And basically hand them out to anybody who’s interested in having them free of charge. So they’ll be available in written form and also on a website as well.
Narrator: The submission deadline is December 1, 2011. For more details on the NIH K-12 LAB Challenge, visit www.science.education.nih.gov. Health Matters is produced by the National Institutes of Health, part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
