Abstract 9355559 Arena Chemistry and Physics Fundamentals for Middle School Minority Teachers or Teachers of Minority Students This two year project for 40 teachers of minorities in grades 6-9 will provide two three week workshops over two years to cover the fundamentals of chemistry and physics. The project begins in 1995. It would also provide for 5 Saturday topical conferences in each of the two academic years. During the workshops the teachers will: improve their conceptual knowledge of their chemistry and physics; learn how to integrate appropriate topics in chemistry and physics with the other sciences and mathematics and with science and technology issues; become more proficient in the development and presentation of classroom activities for science instruction; develop new teaching materials and strategies for teaching the physical sciences in middle schools; become more familiar with the vast array of source materials available for teachers of middle school physical science; Additional goals of the workshops are to: develop networks of middle school and high school teachers within the Southern California region to provide on-going mutual support and assistance; encourage teachers to pursue outreach activities to the community and to furnish them with the science demonstrations and supplies necessary to perform these activities. The teachers will also have an opportunity to practice newly acquired teaching strategies and demonstrations with the middle school students in an associated Chemistry/Physics Camp. The cost share of the project is 5% of the face value of Foundation support.

摘要 9355559竞技场 中学少数民族教师或少数民族学生教师的化学和物理基础 这个为期两年的项目将为40名6-9年级的少数民族教师提供两个为期三周的讲习班，涵盖化学和物理基础知识。 该项目始于1995年。它还将为两个学年的每一学年提供5次星期六专题会议的经费。 在研讨会期间，教师将： 提高他们的化学和物理概念知识; 学习如何将化学和物理中的适当主题与其他科学和数学以及科学和技术问题相结合; 更加精通科学教学课堂活动的开发和呈现; 开发中学物理科学教学新教材和策略; 更加熟悉中学物理科学教师可用的大量原始资料; 讲习班的其他目标是： 在南加州地区建立初中和高中教师网络，以提供持续的相互支持和帮助; 鼓励教师开展社区外展活动，并为他们提供开展这些活动所需的科学演示和用品。 教师们也将有机会在相关的化学/物理营中与中学生一起实践新获得的教学策略和演示。 该项目的费用份额为基金会支助面值的5%。
