National Chautauqua Workshop Program

该肖托夸计划为教师提供了一个年度系列的研讨会，其中研究和教学学者在一些科学学科，数学和工程的前沿密集工作了几天与本科教师，使他们最新的艺术状态。研讨会提供机会，参与学者导师交流新的知识，概念，和技术直接向大学教师的方式，这是立即有利于他们的教学。 该计划的总体目标是使本科教师在科学，数学和工程，以保持其本科教学的最高水平的有效性。 为了实现这一目标年复一年，肖托夸计划积极寻求刷新到车间池与新的教育经验，反映在改善本科教育的进展。 肖托夸方案是全国性的。 预计在整个美国，这些研讨会将为15，000名教师提供丰富的经验，他们将（集体）影响2，625，000名本科生。 预计其中约5 000名教员将来自两年制学院。

The Chautauqua Program provides faculty an annual series of workshops in which research and teaching scholars at the frontiers of a number of science disciplines, mathematics, and engineering work intensively for several days with undergraduate faculty to bring them up to date with the state of the art. The workshops provide opportunities for participating scholar instructors to communicate new knowledge, concepts, and techniques directly to college teachers in ways which are immediately beneficial to their teaching. The overall objective of this program is to enable undergraduate faculty in the sciences, mathematics, and engineering to maintain their undergraduate instruction at the highest levels of effectiveness. To achieve this goal year after year, the Chautauqua Program actively seeks to refresh to the pool of workshops with new education experiences reflecting the progress in improving undergraduate education. The Chautauqua Program is national in scope. It is anticipated that throughout the USA these workshops will provide 15,000 faculty with enrichment experiences who will (collectively) impact 2,625,000 undergraduate students per year after year 5. It is also anticipated that about 5,000 of these faculty participants will be drawn from two-year colleges.
