The University of Alabama-Huntsville, in partnership with seven north Alabama school districts, proposes a five-year LSC project that will involve 160 middle-grade teachers. The districts are diverse ranging from rural to urban and the 11,500 students are from several traditionally underserved groups. All grade 6-8 teachers, from the 47 elementary middle and high schools in the districts, will receive at least 130 hours of professional development that will focus on:* Understanding of science content* Ability to use inquiry-centered curriculum materials effectively* Awareness of current research on science teaching and learning * Knowledge of diverse teaching practices that will enable them to reach all students* A repertoire of assessment strategies that are aligned with instructional practices.The major instructional materials to be implemented are Science and Technology Concepts for Middle Schools (STC/MS), FOSS and SEPUP. The districts have already piloted the available field-test versions of the STC materials.

阿拉巴马大学亨茨维尔分校与阿拉巴马州北部的七个学区合作，提出了一个为期五年的 LSC 项目，将涉及 160 名中级教师。 这些地区从农村到城市多种多样，11,500 名学生来自几个传统上服务不足的群体。 来自各学区 47 所小学和高中的所有 6-8 年级教师将接受至少 130 小时的专业发展，重点是： * 对科学内容的理解 * 有效使用以探究为中心的课程材料的能力 * 对当前科学教学研究的认识 * 了解使他们能够接触到所有学生的多样化教学实践 * 与教学实践相一致的评估策略。 实施的是中学科学技术概念 (STC/MS)、FOSS 和 SEPUP。 各学区已经试点了 STC 材料的可用现场测试版本。
