Rising Above The Gathering Storm: Energizing and Employing America for a Brighter Economic Future
“Rising Above The Gathering Storm” is a report from the prestigious National Academies in 2005 that warned the nation about the dangers of falling behind the world in math and science education. This was the inspiration for the founding of the National Math and Science Initiative, a proactive new non-profit organization dedicated to helping U.S. educators and students regain the competitive edge in math and science.
