A Teacher Enhancement Program to Stimulate Laboratory-based Instruction in DNA Science for Advanced Placement and HonorsBiology Classes

冷泉港利用实验室开发的实验室教学技术，将于1987年至1989年每年夏天在东北部、东南部和中西部的六个地点举办教师-教师培训讲习班。一个移动的DNA实验室携带所有必要的设备，与24名参与者一起进行一系列的9个实验，最终产生和分析一个重组DNA分子。每门课程将从工作坊地点通勤距离内的教师群体中抽取。1987年研讨会的建议地点和日期如下：(1)马萨诸塞州波士顿的温莎学校，6月29日至7月3日；(2)布朗克斯科学学院，布朗克斯，纽约，7月6日至10日；(3)弗吉尼亚州费尔法克斯杰弗逊科学学院，7月27日至31日；(4)阿贡国家实验室，伊利诺伊州阿贡，8月；(5) Choate-Rosemary Hall，沃灵福德，康涅狄格州，8月；(6)州立大学，奥尔巴尼，纽约，8月。现场准备工作由主办机构的当地组织者协调。虽然该计划旨在选择高级课程和荣誉教师，但一定比例的同等资格的普通生物教师将被选中。

Using lab-teaching technology developed at their laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor will hold teacher-teacher-training workshops at six locations in the Northeast, Southeast and Midwest each summer, 1987-89. A mobile DNA laboratory carries all the equipment necessary to perform with 24 participants a series of nine experiments which culminate in the production and analysis of a recombinant-DNA molecule. Each course will draw from teacher populations within commuting distance of workshop site. Propose site and dates for 1987 workshops are: (1) Winsor School, Boston, Massachusetts, June 29 - July 3; (2) Bronx School of Science, The Bronx, New York, July 6-10; (3) Jefferson School of Science, Fairfax, Virginia, July 27-31; (4) Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois, August; (5) Choate-Rosemary Hall, Wallingford, Connecticut, August; (6) State University, Albany, New York, August. On-site preparation is coordinated by a local organizer at the host institution. Although the program is designed to select advanced placement and honors teachers a proportion of similarly-qualified general biology teachers will be selected.
