The proposed project is designed to improve the quality of instruction of physics and physical science in Virginia and neighboring parts of West Virginia and Tennessee. Program components include: (1) Summer course-work sessions during the summers of 1989 and 1990. Summer 1989 courses will include physics fundamentals and techniques for teaching physics concepts. Summer 1990 courses will be topically oriented and build on the foundation from 1989. Courses will include Computers in Physics Education, The Physics Around You, Electromagnetic Devices, and a seminar in current research topics. (2) Academic year 1989-90 activities will include four 8-hour Saturday seminars on campus for sharing experiences with new techniques, presentations by active researchers, and workshops on teaching topics to be selected by participants. Academic year 1990-91 will include two more such seminars. (3) Each participant will conduct or assist in conducting two workshops for other teachers in his/her own geographical area. A total of 14 such workshops will be held. (4) A Physics Telephone Hotline will be available on which any teacher may call the Virginia Tech Physics Department for assistance with a teaching concern. (5) An electronic bulletin board will be maintained for communication between participants, staff, and other teachers for sharing ideas, data, and techniques. Twenty one participants will be recruited -- 1/3 experienced and 2/3 inexperienced. Special attention will be given to teachers from the rural schools. Visitation of each participant's school by faculty provided the primary evaluation of the program. Cost-sharing is approximately 28% of the National Science Foundation request.

建议的项目旨在提高 弗吉尼亚州物理学和物理科学教学， 西弗吉尼亚州和田纳西州的邻近地区 程序 内容包括：（1）夏季课程工作会议期间 1989年和1990年的夏天。 1989年夏季课程将 包括物理基础和教学技术 物理概念。 1990年夏季课程将专题 从1989年开始，在此基础上， 课程将 包括计算机在物理教育中的应用， 你，电磁设备，和一个研讨会， 研究课题。 (2)1989 - 90学年的活动将 包括四个八小时星期六在校园内举行研讨会 新技术的经验，积极的介绍 研究人员，以及关于教学专题的讲习班 参与者。一九九○至九一学年将再增设两个 这样的研讨会。 (3)每个参与者将进行或协助 在他/她自己的学校为其他教师举办两个讲习班， 地理区域。 将举办14个此类讲习班， 举办 (4)物理学电话热线将于 任何老师都可以称之为弗吉尼亚理工大学物理系 协助教学的部门。 (5)一个 将维持电子公告板， 参与者、工作人员和其他教师之间的沟通 分享想法、数据和技术。 将招募21名参与者-1/3有经验 2/3没有经验 将特别注意 农村学校的教师。 每个人的探视 参与者的学校由教师提供的小学 方案的评价。 费用分摊约为28% 国家科学基金会的要求。
