Wake Up: How to Fix a Slogan

The National Science Teachers Association
“Working to Help Improve
Science Teaching Efforts since 2008”
- We want to improve teaching, not effort.
- We want to do the improving, not help.
- We want to show results, not work at it.
The National Science Teachers Association
“Better Science Teaching since 2008”
Even that doesn’t brag about the ultimate result, which would be more science LEARNING, wouldn’t it? No matter how well the Association improves teaching, if students don’t learn more science, it fails.
The National Science Teachers Association
“Our Students Learn More, and We Can Prove it.”

“Improved Learning Drastically since 2008 and Counting”

I like “and counting,” but the syntax of “Improved Learning Drastically” is really weird.
I don’t like it much better, but you probably mean “Drastically Improved Learning,” which is a good impulse.
