The National Education Goal on Math and Science is that by the year 2000, U.S. students will be the first in the world in mathematics and science achievement. The programs in this booklet reflect the various aspects of U.S. Department of Education's efforts to support the achievement of this goal as well as its commitment to comprehensive education improvement based on high academic standards. These programs support math, science, and technology education, either directly or indirectly, in various ways. They cover support for state and local reform, education research, information clearinghouses, and scholarships in selected areas, under the following topics: school improvement; professional development; technology; development and demonstration; research and statistics; information; recognition; and scholarships, fellowships, and related aid.
