Juniata College Science Outreach Program

这个项目扩展了“运动中的化学”项目。该计划将包括生物学和生命科学，并将培训扩大到包括高中前教师和其他地区。总体目标是为宾夕法尼亚州两个多县地区45至50个学区的大约120名化学教师、80名生物教师和40名初中教师提供培训和支持。一系列为期两周的暑期讲习班将更新生物学或化学的知识内容，并为教师提供现代科学仪器的相关理论和实际应用。教师通常参加至少3年的暑期讲习班。随着教师能力的提高，重点转移到开发适合学校教室和实验室使用的实验材料和练习上。在宾夕法尼亚州引入基于结果的教育将允许教师更自由地编写自己的课程。科学车每年带着仪器到参与学校参观12-15次。一名有执照的生物/化学教师驾驶面包车，为教师提供资源。其他后续行动包括为期1天的特别研讨会、年度科学博览会和科学教师活跃网络的发展。费用分摊比例为81%。

This program expands upon the "Chemistry in Motion" project. The plan is to include biology and the life sciences and extend the training to include pre-high school teachers and additional territories. The broad goal is to provide training and support for about 120 chemistry teachers, 80 biology teachers and 40 middle/junior high school teachers among a network of 45 to 50 school districts in two multi county regions of Pennsylvania. A series of 2-week summer workshops will update knowledge content in biology or chemistry and give teachers the pertinent theory and practical use of modern science instrumentation. Teachers typically attend the summer workshops for a minimum of 3 years. As teachers become more capable the emphasis shifts to focus on developing laboratory materials and exercises appropriate for use in school classrooms and labs. The introduction of outcomes based education in Pennsylvania will allow teachers more freedom to write their own curriculum. Participating schools are visited by the science van bringing instruments to the school 12-15 times per year. A certified biology/chemistry teacher drives the van and acts as a resource for teachers. Additional follow up includes special 1 day seminars, an annual science fair and the development of an active network of science teachers. Cost sharing amounts to 81%.
