This is a project which will augment the Chemical Education Conference of the Division of Chemistry Education (DivChed) of the American Chemical Society (ACS) which is held biennially at different sites across the country. The 11th Biennial Conference will be held at the University of Atlanta, Athens GA in August of l990. The objective of the project is to serve the needs of the underprepared high school teachers of chemistry. Specifically, a series of lectures, demonstrations workshops, and computer- usage workshops are planned which will take place at the University of Georgia and Clark University before and after the week-long Conference. During the Conference, the 100 teacher/participants selected from within a 300 mile radius of the planned site will attend meetings, symposia, workshops and informal activities. In this way they will begin to interact with the chemical education community. This ought to help allay the teachers feelings of isolation from their peers. The participants' registration will be provided by the sponsoring organization, DivChed. A Visiting Master Teacher Program and a spring Follow-up Session are also included in the project in order to support and reinforce the momentum developed during the summer. A high priority of the program is to develop an infrastructure among teachers of the southeastern region of the United States, particularly among those who are teaching large numbers of students who are traditionally underrepresented in the sciences. It is hoped that this program will provide a model for enhancing the effectiveness of the DivChed Biennial Conferences in working with the underprepared and underserved precollege chemistry teachers. Approximately one-third of the total cost of the project is being provided by private sector, the ACS, DivChed and in-kind contributions.

这是一个将加强化学教育的项目。 化学教育分部会议（DivChed） 美国化学学会（ACS）每两年举行一次， 全国各地的不同地点。 第十一届双年展 会议将在亚特兰大大学举行，雅典GA 1990年8月。 该项目的目标是满足 准备不足的高中化学老师 具体地说， 一系列的讲座，演示工作坊，和计算机- 计划在 格鲁吉亚大学和克拉克大学在 为期一周的会议。 会议期间，100名 教师/参与者从300英里半径内选择 计划中的网站将参加会议，研讨会，讲习班， 非正式活动。 这样它们就会开始相互作用 与化学教育界合作。 这应该会有帮助 减轻教师与同龄人的孤立感。 的 参加者的登记将由赞助商提供 组织，DivChed。 访问硕士教师计划和 春季后续会议也包括在该项目中， 为了支持和加强发展势头， 夏天 该计划的一个高度优先事项是发展基础设施 在美国东南部地区的教师中， 尤其是那些教授大量 传统上代表性不足的学生， 以理工科为重 希望这一方案能提供一个样板 提高DivChed双年度 与准备不足和服务不足的人合作的会议 大学前的化学老师 该项目总成本的三分之一是 由私营部门、ACS、DivChed和实物提供 捐款.
