An education credit helps with the cost of higher education by reducing the amount of tax owed on your tax return. If the credit reduces your tax to less than zero, you may get a refund. There are two education credits available: the American Opportunity Tax Credit and the Lifetime Learning Credit. The National Training and Simulation Association (NTSA), sponsor of I/ITSEC, believes strongly that there is an American crisis in science and technology education. At our I/ITSEC event, you will see Science, Technology, Engineering and Math programs (STEM) in action on many different levels. Click the links on the left for more information.

For me, civic education is the key to inspiring kids to want to stay involved in making a difference.
iCivics has helped my students to become better educated and comfortable with the functions of the United States government. They are now more engaged in the political process and exhibit confidence when discussing political issues.
With iCivics, you get to take charge and solve the nation’s problems, and you begin to really see how much of an impact you can make to the community, state, even country and make this country better.
I have worked to promote civic education for young people through iCivics. I consider engaging the next generations of citizens to be my most important work yet and my legacy.
My students played “¿Tengo algún derecho?” and they absolutely loved it. After playing the Spanish version a few times, they were more successful when playing “Do I Have A Right?” in English.
I love getting to play iCivics. It’s amazing how much your view changes when you’re the one to have to take care of the people; not the other way around. It opened up my mind about how much work it is to keep everyone happy and made me appreciate my government much more.

I find the materials so engaging, relevant, and easy to understand – I now use iCivics as a central resource, and use the textbook as a supplemental tool. The games are invaluable for applying the concepts we learn in class. My seniors LOVE iCivics.
I have found that students are absolutely excited about playing the games. They love 'winning' the games, via court trials, etc. Even the most reluctant readers are fighting over who has the highest score in 'Do I Have A Right?' all while learning. It is amazing!
