Kelvin (the N.C. Science Festival robot) came to SAS in preparation for the N.C. Science Festival. He had a grand ole time meeting new faces and, even better, new technologies. And I am not going to lie, I enjoyed touring the campus to find more fun things I didn't even

We love being a sponsor of the NC Science Festival every year – and today we thought we would have a little fun with science! Many of us here at Curriculum Pathways are parents and our kids loved playing with "slime." We figured Kelvin would too, so we raided our cabinets, got

SAS Curriculum Pathways and Advanced Placement: Feeding the Monster

The College Board recently reported that the number of U.S. public school students taking Advanced Placement classes nearly doubled over the last decade.

So what do M&M'S® and data literacy have in common? SAS, of course!

Math or Maths?

George Bernard Shaw once noted that "England and America are two countries separated by a common language," or perhaps it was Oscar Wilde, or maybe Winston Churchill.

C'mon Sisters — Let's Code!

When I was 3, my mom was trying to get dinner started (oh mom, how I feel you now!) and she popped a floppy disk in our Apple II with the game Facemaker. I was mesmerized. I added beards and noses to my little guy like it was my job. From that point

FAQ: How is Curriculum Pathways provided at no cost?
