Basing their work on their expertise in science and mathematics, teams composed of teachers, and graduate and undergraduate Fellows are developing new materials and adopting and adapting existing materials for problem- based learning (PBL) and interactive case based learning (ICBL) cases that integrate grade appropriate science and math content into locally relevant classroom modules. The Fellows are assisting teachers in introducing and testing these cases and problems in a variety of middle and high schools in the Atlanta area. In preparation for this work, the teams are participating in workshops on PBL and ICBL pedagogy, as well as teacher- designed introductions to urban education. Each team is collaborating on developing plans that include a needs assessment, an action plan, an implementation plan and a communication plan. The teams are also providing professional development for other teachers in the school. The broader impacts of these activities include benefits to the Fellows, the teachers and the K-12 students involved. The Fellow are gaining the skills and knowledge necessary to: engage in active learning teaching pedagogies and reflective practice; practice the teamwork required for interdisciplinary science collaboration that leads to success in modern scientific research; communicate science effectively to a broader audience; and to include outreach activities in their career goals when they are practicing scientists. The teachers are enhancing and updating their Math /Science content knowledge and are sharing this knowledge with other teachers. They are benefiting as well from enhanced articulation and communication between middle school and high school teachers and between teachers and college faculty and students. The high school and middle school students involved are benefiting not only from the classroom modules being developed but are also interacting with role models to whom they can relate, leading to improved student interest in science and mathematics careers.

根据他们在科学和数学方面的专业知识，由教师、研究生和本科生研究员组成的小组正在开发新的材料，并采用和改编现有的材料，用于基于问题的学习和互动式案例学习，将适合年级的科学和数学内容纳入当地相关的课堂模块。 研究员正在协助教师在亚特兰大地区的各种初中和高中介绍和测试这些案例和问题。为筹备这项工作，各小组正在参加关于基于问题的学习和国际禁雷运动教学法的讲习班，以及由教师设计的城市教育介绍。每个小组正在合作制定计划，其中包括需求评估、行动计划、执行计划和沟通计划。 这些小组还为学校的其他教师提供专业发展。 这些活动的广泛影响包括对研究员、教师和K-12学生的好处。 研究员正在获得必要的技能和知识：从事积极的学习、教学和反思实践;实践跨学科科学合作所需的团队精神，从而在现代科学研究中取得成功;向更广泛的受众有效地传播科学;并在他们从事科学工作时，将外联活动纳入其职业目标。 教师们正在加强和更新他们的数学/科学内容知识，并与其他教师分享这些知识。 他们也受益于中学和高中教师之间以及教师与大学教职员工和学生之间加强的衔接和沟通。 参与的高中和初中学生不仅受益于正在开发的课堂模块，而且还与他们可以联系的榜样互动，从而提高了学生对科学和数学职业的兴趣。 该项目的部分支持来自数学和物理科学理事会标题：整合科学和数学的问题和研究（PRISM）机构：埃默里大学PI/Co-PI：Joseph B。司法; Patricia Marsteller，Preetha Ram合作伙伴学区：DeKalb县，Decatur的城市学校，富尔顿县，亚特兰大公共资金：$1，493，055 #研究员/年：10研究生，10本科生设置：城市等级乐队：中学受影响的学科：科学和数学
