The Lawrence Hall of Science will be launching with this grant a three year dissemination effort designed to bring Great Explorations in Math and Science (GEMS), an activity-based science curriculum, into elementary and middle school classrooms nationwide, and to help determine the effectiveness of such a dissemination model. GEMS is a series of thirty teacher's guides to activities that are exciting and fun yet meet the content and process objectives of school-based science. GEMS activities have been extensively tested and improved by classroom teachers. They can be used to supplement or replace existing curricula, and require only easily accessible materials. Dissemination will be through orientation workshops to 2000 individual teachers and teacher educators across the nation who already implement activity-based materials in the classrooms or who are interested in improving the teaching of elementary school science.

劳伦斯科学馆将利用这笔赠款启动一个三 一年的传播努力，旨在带来伟大的数学探索 和科学（GEMS），以活动为基础的科学课程， 全国中小学教室， 确定这种传播模式的有效性。 GEMS是一个 一系列的三十个教师的指导活动，是令人兴奋的， 既有趣又符合校本科学的内容和过程目标。 GEMS活动已经过课堂广泛测试和改进 教师 它们可以用来补充或取代现有的课程， 并且只需要容易获得的材料。 传播将是 通过为2 000名教师和 全国各地的教育工作者已经实施了基于活动的 教室里的材料或有兴趣改善 小学科学教学。
