This three year project, sponsored by the Joint Council on Economic Education, will support a nationwide teacher enhancement program whose objective is to prepare teachers to teach advanced placement economics in the high schools. The program will take place at four sites (University of California, Los Angeles; University of Minnesota; Purdue University; Clemson University) and 25 well prepared teach- ers will be selected from each region to attend a 2 1/2 day orientation session and a three week summer session. The teachers will learn both content and instructional tech- niques and will also be prepared to be teacher trainers so that the regional workshops can be replicated at local sites. In the second year of the project staff will devel- op a teacher training manual which can be used in the inservice activities. In the third year the resources of the Joint Council will be used to help the teacher trainers carry out in-service programs to disseminate the curriculum locally. The matching funds provided by the Joint Council on Econom- ic Education constitute more than 122% of the NSF grant.

这个为期三年的项目由经济教育联合委员会（Joint Council on Economic Education）赞助，将支持一项全国性的教师提升计划，其目标是让教师为在高中教授先修经济学做好准备。该项目将在四个地点（加州大学洛杉矶分校、明尼苏达大学、普渡大学、克莱姆森大学）进行，将从每个地区选出25名准备充分的教师参加为期两天半的培训课程和为期三周的暑期课程。这些教师将学习内容和教学技术，并准备成为教师培训人员，以便在当地地点复制区域讲习班。在项目的第二年，工作人员将编写一份可用于在职活动的教师培训手册。在第三年，联合委员会的资源将用于帮助教师培训人员开展在职项目，在当地传播课程。经济教育联合委员会提供的配套资金占NSF拨款的122%以上。
