Students and Teachers As Research Scientists (STARS)

9819596格兰格这是一个为期三年的项目。 每年，它将涉及24名科学教师和48名高潜力学生在密苏里大学圣路易斯分校或该地区其他合作研究机构的研究经验。 教师和学生可以选择的研究领域包括人类学、天文学、生物学、化学、计算机科学、地球科学、工程学、物理学、心理学或数学。 这项研究是与合作科学家在为期六周的夏季计划中完成的。参与者通过数据分析，实验室程序和研讨会的正式指导为研究经验做好准备。 在不同的研究地点举行的八次学年后续会议为教师及其学生团队成员提供了与项目同行和其他受邀教师和学生分享的机会。 转移的研究经验到课堂上是促进有关的实验室信息的使用，从他们的研究经验的课程计划的发展。一个电子公告板将使与会者能够继续互动。

9819596GRANGERThis is a three-year project. Each year it will involve 24 science teachers and 48 of their high potential students in a research experience at the University of Missouri-St. Louis or other collaborating research institutions in the region. Research areas teachers and students may select from include anthropology, astronomy, biology, chemistry, computer science, earth science, engineering, physics, and psychology or mathematics. The research is done with collaborating scientists in a six-week summer program. Participants are prepared for the research experience through formal instruction in data analysis, laboratory procedures, and seminars. Eight academic-year follow-up meetings at different research sites provide an opportunity for teachers and their student team members to share with program peers and other invited teachers and students. Transfer of the research experience to the classroom is facilitated by the development of lesson plans relating to the use of the laboratory information from their research experience. An electronic bulletin board will enable continued interaction among participants.
