Application of Electronics to Teaching High School Physics and Computer Science

该项目将在1988年夏天将25名来自威斯康星州的高中物理和计算机科学教师带到威斯康星大学高级分校参加为期两周的电子学研讨会，以更好地为教授高中物理和计算机科学做准备。被选中参加该项目的教师将学习基础和高级电子学的概念，包括应用于微处理器的电子学。研讨会的很大一部分时间将致力于制定供教师在课堂上使用的策略和材料，此外，学员将能够选择电子专业领域的自定进度模块，以便更好地了解这些模块。预计教师们将开发一个电子项目来辅助他们的教学。该项目将在下一学年在他们的课堂上使用，并将确定其有效性的结果。在1988-1989年冬季举行的后续研讨会上，与会者将编写一份关于课堂策略的教师指南。该指南将提供给威斯康星州的19个CESA机构，并将分发给威斯康星州科学教师协会。复印件将被发送到每个州办公室的公共指导部。

This project will bring twenty-five high school physics and computer science teachers from the state of Wisconsin to the University of Wisconsin-Superior during the Summer of 1988 to participate in a two-week workshop on electronics to better prepare them to teach high school physics and computer science. Teachers selected for the program will learn concepts in basic and advanced electronics including electronics as it applies to the microprocessor. A significant portion of the workshop will be devoted to the development of strategies and materials for use by the teachers in their classrooms, In addition, participants will be able to choose self-paced modules in specialized areas of electronics in which they way want to develop a better understanding. The teachers will be expected to develop an electronics project to assist their teaching. This project will be utilized in their classroom during the following school year and the results of its effectiveness will be determined. A teacher's guide of classroom strategies will be developed by the participants in a follow-up seminar to be held in the winter of 1988-1989. This guide will be available to 19 CESA agencies in the state of Wisconsin and will be distributed to the Wisconsin Society of Science Teachers. Copies will be sent to the Department of Public Instruction in each state office.
