"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 New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) entitled, "NSF-RET Site at Engineering Research Center on Structured Organic Particulate Systems (C-SOPS)", under the direction of Dr. Kwabena A. Narh. This program hosted by NJIT and Rutgers University will provide a 6 week summer research experience under the guidance of faculty supervisors with follow up programs during each school year for a total of 54 teachers, 12 in-service high school teachers from local school districts and six NJIT/Rutgers University pre-service teachers (18 per year for 3 years). The major objectives of the program are to: 1) Provide the RET teachers with six weeks of discovery-based research experiences in carefully selected scientific research projects, inter-connected via technology driven ERC test beds from which they can develop basic knowledge and skills in the area of pharmaceutical particulate and composite systems that they can incorporate into their teaching practices; 2) Collaborate with the in-service teachers to develop age-appropriate modules/lessons, and other teaching materials to be implemented in their classrooms during the Academic Year; 3) Offer follow-up programs including workshops and classroom visitations by the NJIT faculty and graduate mentors; and 4) Utilize the evaluation instruments, developed or adapted for such activities by the Center for Pre-College Programs.

“这项奖励是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。”该奖项为新泽西理工学院（NJIT）的一个名为“结构化有机微粒系统（C-SOPS）工程研究中心的NSF-RET站点”的工程现场教师研究经验（RET）项目提供了为期3年的标准奖，由Kwabena a . Narh博士指导。该项目由新泽西理工大学和罗格斯大学主办，将在教师主管的指导下提供为期6周的暑期研究经历，并在每个学年为54名教师提供后续项目，其中包括12名来自当地学区的在职高中教师和6名新泽西理工大学/罗格斯大学的职前教师（每年18名，为期3年）。该计划的主要目标是：1)通过技术驱动的ERC测试平台，为RET教师提供为期六周的基于发现的科研项目研究经验，使他们能够发展药物颗粒和复合系统领域的基本知识和技能，并将其纳入教学实践；2)与在职教师合作，开发适合他们年龄的模块/课程和其他教材，以便在学年期间在他们的课堂上实施；3)提供后续项目，包括NJIT教师和研究生导师的研讨会和课堂参观；4)利用大学预科课程中心为此类活动开发或改编的评估工具。
