"This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5)." This award provides funding for a 3 year standard award to support a Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) in Engineering Site program at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) entitled, "Research Experiences for Teachers: Aviation and Aerospace", under the direction of Dr. Christopher D. Grant. This program hosted by the ERAU College of Engineering will provide a 6 week summer experience for a total of 30 in-service high school science teachers from local school districts (10 per year for 3 years). These teachers will be given the opportunity to be actively involved in research that will allow them to bring knowledge of engineering and technological innovation related to aviation/aerospace into their classrooms.The objectives of the program are: 1) Actively involving high school teachers in engineering research that has an aviation or aerospace focus; 2) Having the teachers bring knowledge of engineering and technological innovation from the research lab into their classrooms; 3) Improving the teachers' understanding of engineering, the engineering design process, and research activities in universities; 4) Building long-term collaborative partnerships between the teachers and the ERAU researchers both during the summer and continuing throughout the academic year; and 5) Helping the teachers translate their research experiences and new knowledge of engineering into classroom learning modules disseminated across the participating teachers' districts, high schools which have joint agreements with ERAU, and the national SECME network of STEM teachers.

“该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。“该奖项为3年标准奖提供资金，以支持安柏瑞德航空大学（ERAU）工程现场项目中的教师研究经验（RET），该项目名为“教师研究经验：航空和航空航天”，由Christopher D.格兰特.该计划由ERAU工程学院主办，将为来自当地学区的30名在职高中科学教师提供为期6周的暑期体验（每年10名，为期3年）。 这些教师将有机会积极参与研究，使他们能够把与航空/航天相关的工程和技术创新的知识带入课堂。该计划的目标是：1）积极让高中教师参与以航空或航天为重点的工程研究;（2）让教师把工程和技术创新的知识从研究实验室带到他们的课堂; 3）提高教师对工程、工程设计过程和大学研究活动的认识; 4）在夏季和整个学年期间，教师和ERAU研究人员之间建立长期合作伙伴关系;及5）协助教师将他们的研究经验及新的工程知识转化为课堂学习单元，并在参与计划的教师地区推广，与ERAU签订了联合协议的高中，以及国家SECME STEM教师网络。
