NSDL Science Literacy Map Tool Adds “Student Misconceptions” Feature

Teachers work to connect broad learning concepts, standards and educational resources in K12 classrooms to ensure that their students’ progress is both developmentally sound and measurable. The new version of the National Science Digital Library’s Science Literacy Map (SLM) tool is an easy-to-use service that finds and presents students  with the right resource at just the right moment. SLM provides visualizations for how learning concepts, standards, and educational resources are interrelated. In addition teachers can access the right classroom resources in time to teach science,  technology, engineering and mathematics concepts linked to associated education standards for students at different stages of learning. Now the Science Literacy Map tool also provides one-click access to associated background research on common student misconceptions.
