IIT RET Site: Corps of Educators and Workshop

该奖项为伊利诺理工学院（IIT）的教师研究经验（RET）项目提供了为期三年的持续资助，该项目名为“IIT RET网站：教育工作者和讲习班”，由亚历山大J. Flueck博士指导。该项目将在2005-2007年夏季为期7周的时间里，每年为8名K-14教师提供深入的实践研究经验。这些教师将负责开发教育模块，说明K-14课程中已经存在的数学和科学概念。模块可能包括科学实验数据的分析或组件/系统的设计，以满足某些规格。这些模块还将强调科学探究和创新的实践，以及对探究和创新的理解。

This award provides funding for a three year continuing award to support a Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) Site program at Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) entitled, "IIT RET Site: Corps of Educators and Workshop," under the direction of Dr. Alexander J. Flueck. This program will provide an in-depth hands-on research experience for 8 K-14 teachers per year for three years, called the Corps of Educators, during a 7-week period in the summers of 2005-2007. The Corps teachers will be responsibile for developing educational modules that illustrate math and science concepts that already exist in K-14 curricula. Modules may include analysis of data from scientific experiments or design of components/systems to meet certain specifications. The modules will also stress the doing of scientific inquiry and innovation, as well as the understanding of inquiry and innovation.
