The Aerospace Science Leadership Institute

这项提议旨在提高纽约市中学理科教师的科学技能。纽约城市大学城市学院与纽约社区学校第5、8、9、11、29和32区合作，提议设立航空航天空间领导学院。该计划为期三年，重点是培训48名认证的中学科学教师(5-8年级)，使其成为所在地区的同行领袖。利用学习链接、城市学院NASA资源中心、无畏航空航天博物馆和青年宇航员计划的资源，该学院将为参与者提供内容、技术、以及领导技能，使他们能够成为有效的教师教育者，有能力帮助他们的同事在课堂上融入科学和技术。将为开发航空航天科学和跨学科课程项目提供机会，这些项目将在学习链接电子网络上共享。费用分摊相当于NSF奖励的37%。

This proposal seeks to enhance the scientific skills of middle school science teachers in New York City. In cooperation with New York Community School Districts 5, 8, 9, 11, 29, and 32 the City College of New York CUNY proposes the Aerospace Space Leadership Institute. The program is for three years and focuses on the training of 48 certified middle school science teachers (grades 5-8) to become peer leaders in their districts. Using resources from Learning Link, the NASA Resource Center at City College, the Intrepid Air and Space Museum, and the Young Astronaut Program, the college will provide participants with content, technology, and leadership skills which will enable them to become effective educators of teachers equipped to help their colleagues integrate science and technology in their classrooms. Opportunities will be provided for the development of aerospace science and interdisciplinary curriculum projects that will be shared on the Learning Link electronic network. Cost sharing is equivalent to 37% of the NSF award.
