Global Systems Science (GSS) is an integrated, interdisciplinary course for high school, consisting of twelve student books, teacher guides, Digital Eartch Watch software, and Hands On Universe Image Processing software. Each GSS book deals with a societal issue that requires science for full understanding. The books may be sequenced in a custom one-year integrated science course or serve as supplementary materials for existing high school biology, physics, chemistry, Earth science, or social studies courses.

The GSS system can reduce your textbook costs by an order of magnitude! See the "Order" page for details. Plus, you can download and review samples of all GSS books for free.

GSS/Global Science Conference will be 2009 July 13–15. Attend either in-person or by telecon!

GSS is now packaged with the Global Science textbook by John Christensen.

GSS partners with NASA's Digital EarthWatch (DEW) Project.

GSS is part of Digital Library for Earth Systems Education. Submit a review of GSS at the DLESE site.
