This project involves two workshops which will train approximately fifty teachers to become science mentor specialists in using hands-on materials and understanding science concepts of physical science taught in the elementary schools. The teachers will be selected in teams of two, one K-3 and one 4-6 grade teacher coming from each school participating in the project. The workshops will provide the mentors with lesson plans and well-organized kits of materials for each hands-on unit; as well as training in use of materials and how to support other teachers' use of the activities. The mentors will select the appropriate physical science units for the grade levels of their school and then provide inservice for the other teachers in their building, thus developing a total school program of hands-on physical science. The participant schools will provide stipends to their teachers, release time for inservice sessions, and pay for the science materials which will be ordered and organized by the workshop. Project evaluation, problem sharing, and long range program planning will be accomplished at two support sessions for all mentor teachers scheduled during the school year. The cost sharing will be 34% of the NSF portion.

该项目包括两个讲习班，将培训大约50名教师成为科学导师专家，使用动手材料和理解小学教授的物理科学的科学概念。教师将以两人为一组，从参与项目的每个学校中选出一名K-3和一名4-6年级的教师。讲习班将为导师提供课程计划和组织良好的材料包，用于每个实践单元；以及如何使用材料和如何支持其他教师使用活动的培训。导师们将为他们学校的年级选择合适的物理科学单元，然后为他们楼里的其他老师提供服务，从而形成一个全面的动手物理科学学校计划。参与学校将为教师提供津贴，提供在职时间，并支付由研讨会订购和组织的科学资料。项目评估、问题分享和长期项目规划将在学年安排的两次支持会议上完成。费用分摊将是国家科学基金部分的34%。
