Teachers In Industry Stategy

这个为期五年的项目由大峡谷州立大学（Grand Valley State University）赞助，每年为20名实习教师提供支持，让他们在当地的企业和行业从事科技工作。根据这一经验，教师应该为学生设计数学和科学活动，这些活动反映了(1)相关科学、数学和技术，(2)解决问题，(3)团队合作，(4)沟通，(5)动机和质量。实习教师还将与学校系统的管理人员合作，在行业现场的常规行业培训课程中探讨这五个主题。根据这一经验，教师/行政管理团队将为自己学校的其他教育工作者设计适当的在职活动。教师们将开展外展活动，并招募他们的同事参与该项目。这些研讨会将由实习教师和他们的行业合作伙伴共同举办，并将通过工业科学和数学专业人士的视角，以及参加暑期实习教师的经验，向教育工作者介绍工业世界。国家科学基金会的资金与大学、当地学校和当地工商业的资金相匹配。配对基金金额超过NSF拨款的124%。

This five year project, sponsored by Grand Valley State University, provides support each year for 20 teacher interns to work in local businesses and industry in science and technology positions. Based upon this experience the teachers are expected to design mathematics and science activities for their students which reflect the themes of (1) relevant science, mathematics and technology, (2) problem solving, (3) teamwork, (4) communication and (5) motivation and quality. The teacher interns will also team up with administrators from their school system to explore these same five themes in regular industry training sessions at industry sites. Drawing upon this experience the teacher/administrator teams will design appropriate inservice activities for other educators in their own school. The teachers are expected to carryout outreach activities and recruit their colleagues to the project. These workshops will be run jointly by teacher interns and their industry partners and will introduce educators to the world of industry through the eyes of industrial science and math professionals and the experience of teachers who have participated in summer internships. NSF funds are being matched by funds from the University, local schools and local business and industry. The amount of matching funds exceeds 124% of the NSF grant.
