Student Perspectives on Waste Management and Environmental Concerns

当地的工业、政府和大学人员将工作 与海伍德县学校合作， 材料和活动，将整合当地的废物 控制和环境问题纳入科学和数学 4-12年级的班级。 教师将接受培训， 通过在役项目、参观工业部门提供材料 和市政场所，以及与工业和 政府科学家和工程师。 当材料 在课堂上投入使用，学生也将 参与实地考察、外部活动和研究 除了在课堂上使用。 双重目标 是教学生这些真实的问题， 告诉他们数学和科学知识是多么重要 处理社区和社会问题。 合作伙伴的成本分摊将占NSF的28% 经费

Local industry, government, and college personnel will work with the Haywood County Schools to develop curriculum materials and activities which will integrate local waste control and environmental issues into science and mathematics classes for grades 4-12. Teachers will be trained to use the materials through inservice programs, visits to industrial and municipal sites, and interaction with industry and governmental scientists and engineers. When the materials are put into use in the classes, students will also be involved in site visits, external activities, and research projects in addition to in-class use. The dual objectives are to teach the students about these real problems and to show them how mathematics and science knowledge are important in dealing with community and societal concerns. Cost sharing by the partners will total 28% of the NSF funding.
