This project provides an opportunity for biology and chemistry secondary school teachers to learn and use basic science concepts and theories as employed in industry for developing curriculum units. The project is predicated on the thesis that a curriculum that is developed by teachers from direct experience will induce changes more quickly in new teaching strategies and produce more highly motivated students and a greater understanding of science. Visits to industries, agencies and natural sites are organized to provide direct experience to teachers. These visits will be supplemented by lectures and laboratory work conducted by university staff paired with experienced high school science teachers. Three week summer workshops in chemistry and biology will be held during the summers of 1988 and 1989. The activities will continue with 12 meetings during the academic year. This project will assist in determining if familiarity with equipment and practical applications of theories and concepts in applied settings will build motivation for pursuing science careers.

这个项目为中学生物和化学提供了一个机会 学校教师学习和使用基本的科学概念和理论， 受雇于工业部门，负责开发课程单元。 该项目 基于这样一个论点，即由教师开发的课程 从直接经验中获得的知识将更快地引发新教学的变化 策略，并产生更高的积极性的学生和更大的 理解科学。 组织参观工业、机构和自然遗址， 为教师提供直接经验。这些访问将得到补充 由大学教职员进行的讲座和实验室工作， 有经验的高中科学老师 三个夏天 化学和生物学讲习班将于2005年夏季举行。 1988年和1989年。 这些活动将在2010年期间继续举行12次会议。 学年。 该项目将有助于确定是否熟悉设备 理论和概念在应用环境中的实际应用 将建立追求科学事业的动力。
