Many of the people you met here have published original research articles
and reviews of their respective fields.
Visit the website http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov,
pick PubMed, and type in the author's last name and first initial, e.g. "owens
is" for Dr. Ida S. Owens' articles.
You WILL find many articles published by folks named Owens, but by using both
first initials (IS), you will increase the chance that you will find Ida Owens'
articles.

DC ACTS goals are to facilitate the capacity of teachers in schools in Washington DC to improve content knowledge, classroom instruction strategies and resources, and assessment for tailoring instruction in science, mathematics and technology subject areas. Then teachers can provide more rigorous and standards-based course content for their classes and improve opportunities for their students to learn science through inquiry and standards-based instruction.
