REU Site: Undergraduate Teacher Training in Materials Synthesis and Processing

美国亚利桑那州立大学（ASU）化学与生物化学系、化学系、生物系和材料工程系、物理系和天文学系以及固态科学中心将在ASU建立一个本科生研究体验（REU）网站。REU计划的目标是向未来的初中和高中教师，即职前教师介绍基本的材料合成和加工。REU网站旨在吸引在亚利桑那州立大学和参与研究项目机会有限的机构从事教育和教师培训的本科生。来自亚利桑那州大学、社区学院和部落学院的学生参与者将参与研究，包括医疗植入物的生物活性表面涂层、工艺残留物的半导体腐蚀以及二元和三元半导体合金。学生参与者将在亚利桑那州立大学科学和教育学院的联合指导下开发大学预科课堂的教学模块。%%%本项目针对的是本科学生群体中的一个重要部分：未来的初高中教师，对未来几代人的科学教育具有广泛影响的潜力。＊＊＊

9619834 Kouvetakis The Departments of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Chemical, Bio, and Materials Engineering, Physics and Astronomy, and the Center for Solid State Science at Arizona State University (ASU) will establish a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site at ASU. The goal of the REU program is to introduce basic materials synthesis and processing to prospective middle and high school teachers, that is, pre-service teachers. The REU site is designed to attract undergraduate students that are engaged in education and teacher training at ASU and at institutions where the opportunities to participate in research programs are limited. Student participants from universities, community colleges, and tribal colleges in Arizona will be involved in research which includes bioactive surface coating for medical implants, semiconductor corrosion from process residuals, and binary and ternary semiconductor alloys. The student participants will develop teaching modules for the pre-college classroom under the joint guidance of the science and education faculties at ASU. %%% This project targets an important sector of the undergraduate student population: future middle and high school teachers, and has the potential for a broad-reaching impact on the science education of future generations. ***
