NCSE promotes and defends accurate and effective science education, because everyone deserves to engage with the evidence. For 36 years the National Center for Science Education (NCSE) has worked to ensure evidence-based science is taught in public school science classrooms. Focused initially on preventing creationism from being taught alongside or instead of evolution, the organization added climate change to its mission in 2012 when it became clear that politicization of the topic was affecting how it was being taught. NCSE is unique in its recognition that societally, but not scientifically, controversial topics are challenging to teach. For these topics, accuracy alone is not enough to change minds. NCSE helps train teachers and community volunteers in proven approaches that are effective in helping learners overcome even deeply held misconceptions. NCSE played a key role in several crucial legal battles that affirmed teaching creationism in public schools is unconstitutional and continues to help local communities block legislation and other efforts allowing or encouraging teachers to miseducate students on these critical topics.

Story

Suggested donation: $10

Welcome to the Star Trek Pod Crawl landing page! We’re a group of Star Trek podcasts raising money for science education by banding together and making special episodes about some of our favorite Star Trek films.

If you’re coming here because one of your favorite podcasts is participating in the crawl, we hope you’ll consider making a donation toward our goal of $10,000 for the National Center for Science Education. Let’s build the Star Trek future we all want! That starts with excellent, reality-based education.

NCSE defends the integrity of science education against ideological interference. They work with teachers, parents, scientists, and concerned citizens at the local, state, and national levels to ensure that topics including evolution and climate change are taught accurately, honestly, and confidently. 100% of your tax-deductible donation goes to support NCSE and their important work.

Once that’s done, check out all the great podcasts that are participating in the crawl!
