Culturally Responsive, Equitable Science Teachers

Welcome to the official site of Project CREST: Developing Culturally Responsive and Equitable Science Teachers!

Project CREST is funded by the Shewey Foundation Fund, College of Education, School of Teaching and Learning at the University of Florida.


The goal of CREST is to grow culturally responsive science teachers who help all students experience success in science.

In CREST, Florida middle school science teachers are supported through a Professional Learning Community (PLC), designing culturally responsive science units, and their own inquiry project.
