Hands on Science Workshop in Physical Science for ElementaryTeachers

加州州立大学洛杉矶分校的这个项目。旨在教育 教师成为动手科学教学的领导者， 他们的小学。 这两个讲习班将培训一名 共有50名教师成为科学导师专家 使用动手科学材料， 适合小学的自然科学概念。 工作坊将为导师提供课程， 计划和精心组织的材料包，为每个动手 单位，以及在这些材料的使用下雨， 如何教育教师。 导师们将 将自然科学单元与学校课程相关联 在职教师在每个年级授课。 将有两 每个学校的老师都有代表， 将为他们学校一半的老师服务。 因此 该计划将制定一个全面的学校计划， 物理科学 每所参与学校将提供一份 为教师提供津贴，以指导他们的服务。 同事、此类活动的发布时间和费用分摊 科学工具包，将提供给每个学校。 项目 评估、问题共享和长期规划将是 在为所有指导教师举办的两次支持会议上完成 安排在学年期间。 额外支持将 也可由私人督察在个别学校提供 在这一年里，他们试图改善教学， 科学在学校里。 费用分摊将占NSF部分的38%。

This project from Cal State L.A. is designed to educate teachers to be leaders of hands-on science instruction in their elementary schools. The two workshops will train a total of fifty teachers to become science mentor specialists in using hands-on science materials and to understand the physical science concepts appropriate for elementary schools. The workshops will provide the mentor teachers with lesson plans and well-organized kits of materials for each hands-on unit, as well as raining in the use of these materials and how to educate teachers about them. The mentors will correlate the physical science units their school curriculum and inservice teaches at each grade level. There will be two teachers from each school represented so that each teacher will inservice half of the teachers at their school. Thus the program will develop a total school program of hands on physical science. Each participating school will provide a stipend to the teacher for conducting the inservice of their colleagues, release time for such activity, and cost share the science kits which will be given to each school. Project evaluation, problem sharing, and long range planning will be accomplished at two support sessions for all mentor teachers scheduled during the school year. Additional support will also be provided by the PIs at their individual schools during the year as they attempt to improve the teaching of science in their school. The cost sharing will be 38% of the NSF portion.
