Operation Physics: Phase Two

“操作物理”的第二阶段继续这一国家项目，以改善小学高年级和中学基本物理概念的教与学。分布在美国各地的36个三人领导小组将参加在圣地亚哥州立大学举行的为期三周的密集活动培训项目。该团队由一名教师、一名主管或管理人员以及来自当地的一名学院/大学人员组成，将专注于K-8课程中通常确定的物理内容、适用于中小学物理教学的现行方法和材料。最近的研究与学习理论和教学实践有关，使用在项目第一阶段开发的特别设计的工作坊工具包。各小组还将接受培训和协助，使用这些资料包在其所在地区规划和举办所需数量的在职讲习班。物理行动小组的传播工作将通过美国物理学会教育司和物理行动国家促进者的服务得到协助。这些州协调员将在该州协调物理操作项目的实施和传播。这个项目的成本分摊占总成本的很大一部分。来自各学区、圣地亚哥州立大学和AIP的捐款相当于NSF请求的49%。//

Phase Two of Operation Physics continues this national project to improve the teaching and learning of basic physics concepts in the upper elementary and middle school grades. Thirty-six three-member leadership teams, geographically distributed throughout the United States will participate in an intensive activity-oriented three-week training program held at San Diego State University. This team, consisting of a teacher, a supervisor or administrator and a college/university person from the local region, will focus on the physics content typically identified for inclusion in the K-8 curriculum, current methods and materials appropriate for teaching physics to elementary and middle school children, recent research related to learning theory and teaching practice using especially designed workshop kits developed during the first phase of the project. The teams will also receive training and assistance in using these kits to plan and conduct a required number of inservice workshops in their own area. The Operation Physics teams will be assisted in their dissemination efforts through the services of the Education Division of the American Institute of Physics and the Operation Physics State Facilitators. These State Facilitators will coordinate the implementation and dissemination of the Operation Physics programs in the state. The cost-sharing for this project represents a significant part of the total cost. Contributions from the school districts, San Diego State University, and AIP represent an amount equal to 49% of the NSF request. //
