Who Are We?
Georgia Citizens for Integrity in Science Education (GCISE) is dedicated to promoting scientific literacy and excellence in science education.
GCISE works to achieve this goal in several ways, including:
a) reaching out to teachers, students and administrators in K-12 public schools and to the general community;
b) supporting improvements in science education and to safeguard science instruction against sectarian, pseudoscientific, and other non-falsifiable interpretations and intrusions that fall outside of generally recognized and accepted methods of instruction and scientific inquiry;
c) acting as a liaison between the media and a variety of experts in science and educational policy.
A first-class science education provides students with vital, meaningful ways to understand the world around them and will provide Georgia with the skilled labor force needed to expand our technological economy. Protecting the integrity of science education will contribute directly to the future of our students, our quality of life, and to the prosperity of the state of Georgia.
