Transition to the Workplace Through Manufacturing Experiences

9555646 Harpole这个国家项目第一年将有14名物理和技术预科教师，之后三年每年有52名。在第一阶段，领导团队（一名物理教师和一名技术预科班教师）和项目工作人员将为为期三周的研讨会“通过制造经验学习”编写研讨会材料。这将在一个为期五周的项目中完成，其中包括在百威电子公司进行为期三周的实习，以及在密西西比州立大学进行为期两周的材料适应和内容强化。在项目的第二年、第三年和第四年，两组24名物理和技术预备教师将参加这些讲习班，旨在为他们提供学生进入制造业所需的知识和技能经验，以及发展这些技能的内容知识。学年跟进活动包括参加者到学校实地考察、网上交流，以及与专业教师会议联合举办为期一天的工作坊。

9555646 Harpole This national project will include 14 physics and tech prep teacher in the first year and 52 in each of the succeeding 3-years. In Phase I, Leadership Teams (one physics teacher and one Tech pre teacher) and project staff will develop workshop materials for a 3-wekk workshop, Learning Through Manufacturing Experiences. This will be done during a five-week program which includes a 3-week internship with Peavey Electronics Corporation and two week of materials adaptation and content reinforcement at Mississippi State University. During the second, third and fourth years of the project two cohorts of 24 physics and tech prep teachers will participate in these workshops designed to equip them with knowledge and experience of the skills necessary for students to enter the world of manufacturing and the content knowledge to develop those skills. Academic year follow-up includes site visits to schools of participants, Internet communication and one-day workshops in association with professional teachers' conferences.
