Teachers In Industry Stategy

这项为期五年的项目由大谷州立大学赞助，每年为20名实习生提供支持，让他们在当地企业和行业的科技岗位上工作。根据这一经验，教师应为学生设计反映(1)相关科学、数学和技术、(2)解决问题、(3)团队合作、(4)交流和(5)动机和素质的主题的数学和科学活动。实习生教师还将与学校系统的管理人员合作，在行业现场的定期行业培训课程中探讨这五个主题。根据这一经验，教师/管理小组将为本校的其他教育工作者设计适当的在职活动。预计教师将开展外展活动，并招募他们的同事加入该项目。这些工作坊将由实习生和他们的行业合作伙伴联合举办，将通过工业科学和数学专业人士的眼睛和参加过暑期实习的教师的经验，向教育工作者介绍行业世界。NSF的资金得到了来自大学、当地学校和当地工商业的资金的匹配。配套资金的金额超过了NSF拨款的124%。

This five year project, sponsored by Grand Valley State University, provides support each year for 20 teacher interns to work in local businesses and industry in science and technology positions. Based upon this experience the teachers are expected to design mathematics and science activities for their students which reflect the themes of (1) relevant science, mathematics and technology, (2) problem solving, (3) teamwork, (4) communication and (5) motivation and quality. The teacher interns will also team up with administrators from their school system to explore these same five themes in regular industry training sessions at industry sites. Drawing upon this experience the teacher/administrator teams will design appropriate inservice activities for other educators in their own school. The teachers are expected to carryout outreach activities and recruit their colleagues to the project. These workshops will be run jointly by teacher interns and their industry partners and will introduce educators to the world of industry through the eyes of industrial science and math professionals and the experience of teachers who have participated in summer internships. NSF funds are being matched by funds from the University, local schools and local business and industry. The amount of matching funds exceeds 124% of the NSF grant.
