The Lawrence Hall of Science at the University of California at Berkeley will be the site of a three-year Primary Leadership Institute in Science and Mathematics (PRISM) for teams of K-3 teachers and teacher educators nationwide. PRISM is based on a previously NSF-funded program, and will provide education in both content and instructional strategies, as well as preparing teachers to serve as specialists and providers of inservice. A 4-week summer institute providing 120 hours of educational enhancement to 30 teachers and specialists will be offered each year (90 teachers/3 years). During the academic year, participants will receive a regular newsletter, mini-grants to support school-year leadership activities, and will attend leadership conferences. A new facet of this project is the involvement of 20 teacher educators (60 total) each project year from institutions nationwide. These teacher educators will attend the PRISM Institute for one week to receive inservice specific to adapting the PRISM model for use with teachers in their areas. This leadership proposal is appropriate for teacher enhancement because it is designed to enhance the science knowledge and teaching, and develop leadership skills and efforts of teachers of grades K-3, and because it will also provide a 1-week workshop for science educators who will be teamed with teacher participants when possible; thus the project will have far-reaching impact, not only through the efforts of teacher participants, but also through the pre- service and classroom teachers reached by participating teacher educators. Non-NSF cost-sharing is approximately 28% of the amount requested from NSF.

加州大学伯克利分校的劳伦斯科学馆将成为为期三年的科学与数学初级领导学院（PRISM）的所在地，面向全国的K-3教师和教师教育工作者团队。PRISM是基于先前nsf资助的项目，将提供教育内容和教学策略，以及准备教师作为专家和在职提供者。每年将为30名教师和专家（90名教师/3年）提供为期4周的暑期课程，提供120小时的教育增强。在学年期间，参与者将收到定期通讯，小额赠款，以支持学年领导活动，并将参加领导会议。该项目的一个新方面是每个项目每年都有来自全国各院校的20名教师教育者（总共60名）参与。这些教师教育工作者将参加PRISM研究所为期一周的培训，以获得有关调整PRISM模型以供其所在地区教师使用的具体服务。此领导建议适合于教师提升，因为它旨在提高科学知识和教学，发展K-3年级教师的领导技能和努力，并为科学教育工作者提供为期一周的工作坊，在可能的情况下，他们将与教师参与者合作；因此，该项目将产生深远的影响，不仅通过教师参与者的努力，而且通过参与教师教育者所达到的职前和课堂教师。非国家科学基金费用分摊约为向国家科学基金申请金额的28%。
