DESCRIPTION The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, through its School of Education and participating scientists from the National Institute of Environmental Health Marine and Freshwater Biomedical Sciences Center and the UMW Center for Science-Mathematics Education Research will collaborate with middle school science teachers to create innovative strategies for delivery of science education into the middle school classroom linked to current research in environmental health problems. The overall objective is to instruct and support teachers so that they can introduce students to laboratory experiences which utilize aquatic organisms and illustrate important environmental health and basic science concepts. Over the 4-year project period, scientists will introduce the teachers to their research, then the scientists and UWM education faculty will collaborate to train the teachers to present relevant investigatory science curriculum modules and enrichment materials that address basic science concepts relating to human environmental health questions. The specific aims are to: increase the conceptual base and knowledge of teachers throughout Wisconsin and the surrounding region through a workshop that provides a course in environmental health science; link scientists and teachers together in a workshop setting to explore laboratory curricular modules which are experimental in nature and utilize aquatic organisms and other environmental materials; enhance the capacity of teachers to engage students with critical thinking strategies, cooperative learning settings, and in cross-disciplinary enrichments; help teachers encourage female and minority student interest in science; provide science teachers with fully developed curriculum modules for teaching science that engage the learner in authentic learning tasks and offers critical thinking exercises, cooperative learning settings, and cross-disciplinary enrichment; support science teachers in distance learning, using video and electronic mail application on the Internet, including discussion with scientists, teachers and students at different schools; offer enrichment materials which can be used throughout the year; and, provide thorough evaluation of the effectiveness of this project.

描述 威斯康星大学密尔沃基分校通过其教育学院和 国家环境卫生研究所的科学家们 海洋和淡水生物医学科学中心和UMW中心 科学-数学教育研究将与中学合作 科学教师创造创新的战略，以提供科学 教育进入中学课堂与目前的研究， 环境健康问题。 总体目标是指导和 支持教师，使他们能够向学生介绍实验室 利用水生生物的经验， 环境健康和基本科学概念。 在4年的项目中， 期间，科学家将向教师介绍他们的研究，然后 科学家和西弗吉尼亚大学教育学院将合作培训教师 提出相关的解释科学课程模块和充实 涉及人类基本科学概念的材料 环境卫生问题。 具体目标是： 整个威斯康星州和周边地区的教师通过研讨会 提供环境健康科学课程;将科学家和 教师在工作坊中一起探索实验室课程 实验性质的模块，利用水生生物， 其他环境材料;提高教师参与的能力 学生批判性思维策略，合作学习环境， 和跨学科的丰富;帮助教师鼓励女性和 少数学生对科学感兴趣;为科学教师提供充分的 开发了用于教授科学的课程模块，使学习者参与 真实的学习任务，并提供批判性思维练习，合作 学习环境和跨学科充实;支持科学 教师在远程教育中，使用视频和电子邮件应用程序 包括与科学家、教师和学生的讨论 在不同的学校;提供可以使用的丰富材料 全年;并提供全面的有效性评估 这个项目的。
