The Saturday Academy, an adjunct of the Oregon Graduate Center which offers extra-school courses for motivated pre-college science students, will join with the Business/Education Compact of Washington County (WA) in three programs. (1) Community-based science and technology teacher enhancement programs. As with previously successful student courses, they will be taught by a variety of professionals at sites throughout the area, ranging from industries to academic institutions. Classes will be informal, participative, stress currently important areas of science and technology, and provide material for teachers to incorporate into their own teaching. (2) An invention-oriented creativity and design competition for middle school students. Teachers will be trained in techniques of encouraging creativity through the process of invention. Businesses will be recruited to sponsor the event and provide technical personnel to work with students in developing inventions. The inventions will be displayed and judged at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. (3) Computer networking to link science teachers in other parts of the state to the Saturday Academy and to each other. This will be initiated at four existing satellites of the Academy using existing computer facilities to define how such networking can best be utilized and provide a model for future expansion. Cost sharing by the partners will total 108% of the NSF funding.

星期六学院是俄勒冈州研究生中心的附属机构，为积极进取的大学预科理科学生提供校外课程，将与华盛顿县商业/教育契约(华盛顿县)一起参加三个项目。(1)以社区为基础的科技教师提升计划。与以前成功的学生课程一样，这些课程将由该地区从行业到学术机构的各种专业人员授课。课程将是非正式的，参与性的，强调当前重要的科学和技术领域，并为教师提供材料，让他们融入自己的教学。(2)面向中学生的发明创造设计大赛。教师将接受通过发明创造过程鼓励创造力的技术培训。将招募企业赞助此次活动，并提供技术人员与学生合作开发发明。这些发明将在俄勒冈州科学与工业博物馆展出和评审。(3)将该州其他地区的科学教师与星期六学院以及彼此联系起来的计算机网络。这将在学院现有的四颗卫星上启动，使用现有的计算机设施，以确定如何最好地利用这种联网，并为今后的扩展提供一个模式。合作伙伴分担的费用将占NSF资金的108%。
