Interdisciplinary (99)For over three decades, the Chautauqua Short Courses for College Teachers Program has provided a wide array of carefully designed short courses, workshops, and field experiences to undergraduate faculty from two and four-year institutions. The Program provides an opportunity for faculty members to stay abreast of emerging trends in their field(s) through intensive interaction with scholars at the frontiers of science, mathematics, and engineering disciplines. The Program serves as a conduit between cutting-edge research findings and teaching approaches in post secondary education. Participants translate what they learn in Program courses into more informed, more effective, undergraduate teaching. In this project, 67 short courses will offered at five regional centers in Seattle Washington, California State University at Dominguez Hills, Austin Texas, Dayton Ohio, and SUNY Stony Brook (Long Island, NY). The intellectual merit of this program is that it facilitates the teaching of up-to-date content using up-to-date pedagogical content knowledge by undergraduate faculty in the sciences, mathematics, and engineering. The broader impact of the Chautauqua Short Courses Program derives from its national scope and wide coverage of disciplines. Over the course of the last Chautauqua grant from NSF, spanning seven years of workshops, more than 12,700 distinct college teachers have participated in 740 individual courses. As a result, more than 2,200,000 undergraduate students have benefited from improved instruction annually. Nearly a third of faculty participants have come from two year colleges.

跨学科（99）三十多年来，肖托夸大学教师短期课程计划为来自两年制和四年制院校的本科教师提供了广泛的精心设计的短期课程、研讨会和实地经验。该计划为教师提供了一个机会，通过与科学，数学和工程学科前沿学者的密切互动，了解其领域的新兴趋势。 该计划是尖端研究成果与中学后教育教学方法之间的渠道。参与者将他们在计划课程中学到的知识转化为更明智，更有效的本科教学。 在这个项目中，67个短期课程将在西雅图、华盛顿、加州、位于多明格斯山的州立大学、得克萨斯州奥斯汀、代顿、俄亥俄州和纽约州立大学斯托尼布鲁克（纽约长岛）的五个区域中心提供。 该计划的智力价值是，它有利于最新内容的教学使用最新的教学内容知识，由本科教师在科学，数学和工程。 肖托夸夸短期课程计划的更广泛的影响来自其全国范围和学科的广泛覆盖。在国家科学基金会的最后一次肖托夸赠款的过程中，跨越了七年的讲习班，超过12,700名不同的大学教师参加了740个单独的课程。因此，每年有220多万名本科生受益于改进的教学。 近三分之一的教师参与者来自两年制大学。
