This award provides funding for a three year standard award to support a Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) in Engineering Site program at the Colorado State University, "RET-Site Program in Light & Optics for the NSF EUV ERC," under the direction of Dr. Jorge Rocca.This RET Site at the EUV ERC will provide 27 (9 per year) middle school teachers each summer for six weeks an opportunity to participate in pioneering research on state-of-the-art equipment with faculty and students. The research topics in light technology, are an important area of optics that is enabling to nanoscience and nanotechnology, and that will play a critical role in the fabrication of the future generation of computer chips. In addition the teachers will develop new learning tools, participate in a professional development workshop, and experience follow-up visits from EUV Center graduate students and faculty which will increase the longevity of the program's educational impact. Optics is now part of the middle/high school curriculum in Colorado, and therefore this effort will have direct impact on effective student learning. The program will involve teachers and students from districts and after-school programs with large minority and low-income populations.

该奖项为为期三年的标准奖提供资金，以支持科罗拉多州立大学的工程现场教师研究经验（RET）计划，“NSF EUV ERC的光光学RET现场计划&，“在豪尔赫·罗卡博士的指导下。EUV ERC的RET站点将提供27（每年9名）中学教师每年夏天有六周的机会与教师和学生一起参加关于最先进设备的开创性研究。 光技术的研究课题是光学的一个重要领域，它使纳米科学和纳米技术成为可能，并将在未来一代计算机芯片的制造中发挥关键作用。此外，教师将开发新的学习工具，参加专业发展研讨会，并体验EUV中心研究生和教师的后续访问，这将增加该计划的教育影响的寿命。 光学现在是科罗拉多初中/高中课程的一部分，因此这一努力将对学生的有效学习产生直接影响。 该计划将涉及来自地区和课后计划的教师和学生，其中有大量少数民族和低收入人口。
