Chemistry for Children: A Program for Elementary School Teachers in Precollege Chemistry

儿童化学：面向小学教师的学前化学课程将在适合化学背景较少或没有化学背景的小学教师的水平上介绍化学经验，并将以这样的方式呈现，教师可以将这些经验转化为安全、动手、令人兴奋的活动，供他们的学生在小学进行。25名教师将在曼斯菲尔德大学每年两个暑期为期三周的暑期讲习班和学年为期一周的讲习班中获得教育经验，作为其他教师的顾问。皮埃尔·阿诺德·乔治和皮埃尔·罗伯特·约翰逊之前已经完成了一本优秀的150页的儿童活动化学书籍和一本附带的在职指南(TEI85-50036)，这本书将通过这个项目进一步传播。

Chemistry for Children: A Program for Elementary School Teachers in Precollege Chemistry will introduce experiences with chemistry at a level appropriate to elementary teachers with little or no background in chemistry, and will be presented in such a way that the teachers can translate the experiences into safe, hands-on, exciting activities for their students in elementary school. Twenty-five teachers will be given the educational experiences in three-week summer workshops in each of two summers and an academic year one-week workshop at Mansfield University to act as resource persons for other teachers. PI Arnold George and Co-PI Robert Johnson have previously completed an outstanding 150 page book of activities Chemistry for Children and an accompanying in-service guide (TEI 85-50036) which will be further disseminated through this project.
