9355659 Strassenburg This national 3-year project will: conduct a national needs assessment of middle school teachers to determine their inservice needs on topics which comply with the emerging national science standards; provide teacher enhancement congruent with those topics and measure this model's effectiveness in generating local district support and assessing whether local demand is sufficient so rosters will fill reliably to maintain local participation which contains the costs. Each year fifty teachers at each of three sites will participate in a four-week summer workshop led by an instructional team of a Presidential Awardee middle school teacher, a graduate student in the discipline or a closely allied discipline and a university scientist in the topic area. The teachers from grades 6-9 will participate in workshop where the pedagogy modeled will reflect what research shows is effective science instruction. Content and hands-on activities are drawn from a variety of exemplary sources which were developed with NSF support. (The University Physics Project, SS&C and from the TRIAD Projects). If the project generates the local support anticipated and if local demand is sufficiently so local filling of the rosters contains the cost, then it's expected that this program will become a permanent feature of NSTA activities.

小行星9355659 这一为期三年的国家项目将：对中学教师进行一次国家需求评估，以确定他们在符合新的国家科学标准的专题方面的在职需求;提供与这些主题相一致的教师培训，并衡量这种模式在获得当地地区支持方面的有效性，并评估当地需求是否足够，以便名册能够可靠地填补，以保持当地参与其中包含成本。 每年，三个地点的五十名教师将参加为期四周的夏季研讨会，由一名总统获奖中学教师，一名学科或密切相关学科的研究生和一名大学科学家组成的教学团队领导。 6-9年级的教师将参加研讨会，在研讨会上，教学法模型将反映研究表明的有效科学教学。 内容和实践活动是从与NSF的支持开发的各种示范性来源。(The大学物理项目，SS C和来自TRIAD项目）。 如果该项目产生了预期的当地支持，如果当地需求足够，因此当地填写名册包含了成本，那么预计该计划将成为NSTA活动的永久特征。
