This project will deliver in-service training to teachers of geography. Thirty teachers, grades 6-10, will be selected from Minnesota and Western Wisconsin. During the program the participants will take two graduate courses, Advanced Regional Geography and Curriculum Development Workshop. Each participant will produce six modules for use in world-regional and North American geography courses. Preference for admission into the program will be given to teams made up of both elementary and secondary school teachers. Such teams will be expected to be involved in improving geographic education at all levels in their district's curriculum. The participants will attend a three-week Workshop during the summer of 1986 and our all-day follow-up sessions during the academic year. In addition to the main components of the program, co-curricular activities will be arranged so that the participants can meet their peers from Japan who will be at Macalester attending an institute for teachers of English.

该项目将对地理教师进行在职培训。将从明尼苏达州和威斯康星州西部选出30名6-10年级的教师。在此期间，学员将学习两门研究生课程：高级区域地理和课程开发工作坊。每个参与者将制作六个模块用于世界区域和北美地理课程。由小学和中学教师组成的团队将优先被录取。这些小组将参与改进其所在地区各级课程的地理教育。参加者将在1986年夏季参加为期三周的讲习班，并在学年期间参加全天的后续会议。除了项目的主要组成部分外，还将安排课外活动，以便参与者能够与来自日本的同行见面，他们将在马卡莱斯特参加英语教师协会。
