The project; University/Industry Program for Teachers of Physics, is designed to modernize and deepen the science background of 30 high school physics teachers while providing them with teaching materials representative of topics of current scientific and technical interest. The physics teaching modules which form the basis of the project were developed by teams of physics teachers working with Rutgers University faculty and industrial scientists from AT&T Bell Laboratories and Bell Communications Research. The Leadership Institute for Teachers of Physics is the central activity of the project. The thirty physics teachers, selected nationwide, will attend a four-week residential program during July 1989. The summer program includes laboratory work on the modules with the assistance of Lead Teachers and university faculty, a seminar series developed by university and industrial scientists, discussion of effective teaching strategies, and tours of leading research facilities. In addition, selected Lead Teachers will continue to work with scientists on module development throughout the year. This will involve the revision and testing of previously developed modules and the creation of new ones. To facilitate the use of the modules both in the classroom and at professional science education workshops, follow-up meetings will be held during the school year for regional teachers. All 1989 Institute participants will be invited back for a one-week follow-up program in the summer of 1990. Participants will also be encouraged to communicate using PIMAIL, an interactive computer network sponsored by the American Institute of Physics.

项目；物理教师大学/行业计划旨在现代化和深化 30 名高中物理教师的科学背景，同时为他们提供代表当前科学和技术兴趣主题的教材。 构成该项目基础的物理教学模块是由物理教师团队与罗格斯大学教师以及来自 AT&T 贝尔实验室和贝尔通信研究中心的工业科学家合作开发的。 物理教师领导学院是该项目的核心活动。 全国选拔的 30 名物理教师将在 1989 年 7 月参加为期四周的住宿项目。暑期项目包括在首席教师和大学教师的协助下进行各模块的实验室工作、由大学和工业科学家开发的系列研讨会、有效教学策略的讨论以及领先研究设施的参观。 此外，选定的首席教师将继续与科学家合作全年进行模块开发。 这将涉及先前开发的模块的修订和测试以及新模块的创建。 为了促进在课堂和专业科学教育研讨会上使用这些模块，将在学年期间为地区教师举行后续会议。 所有 1989 年研究所的参与者都将被邀请在 1990 年夏天回来参加为期一周的后续计划。还将鼓励参与者使用 PIMAIL（一种由美国物理研究所赞助的交互式计算机网络）进行交流。
