Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellowship: Integrating Chemical Research into Middle and High School Science Classrooms

Julie Yu，探索学院教师，2006-2007学年和2007-2008学年发现团博士后研究员。俞敏洪的工作将利用非正式的科学教育研究为探索师范学院开发化学材料。这些课程材料和教师充实讲习班将整合当前的学术研究领域，并将提供给服务于不同城市学生群体的6-12年级教师。探索团队的博士后奖学金由化学部和多学科活动办公室提供支持。探索军团奖学金计划是一个试点计划，寻求将研究专业知识与专业服务相结合的新的博士后和专业发展模式。探索兵团研究员通过解决国家需求领域的项目来利用他们的研究专长。他们的项目增强了研究能力和基础设施，并有助于劳动力发展和创造就业机会。探索团队计划同时支持博士后研究员和高级研究员。

Julie Yu, Exploratorium Teacher Institute, is a Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellow for the 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 academic years. Yu's work will use informal science education research to develop chemistry materials for the Exploratorium Teacher Institute. These curricular materials and teacher enrichment workshops will integrate current areas of academic research and will be offered to 6-12th grade teachers that serve a diverse urban student pool. This Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellowship is supported by the Division of Chemistry and the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities. The Discovery Corps Fellowship Program is a pilot program seeking new postdoctoral and professional development models that combine research expertise with professional service. Discovery Corps Fellows leverage their research expertise through projects that address areas of national need. Their projects enhance research capacity and infrastructure and contribute to workforce development and job creation. The Discovery Corps Program supports both Postdoctoral Fellows and Senior Fellows.
