Subject: NSF NanoTeach Pilot Test - Jan 8 Deadline
We are pleased to announce this NSF-funded opportunity for high
school science teachers to participate in professional development to
support the integration of nanoscience and technology into their
existing curricula.
Please join us in supporting the National Science Foundation in
facilitating the integration of nanoscience and technology into
education!
NanoTeach is a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded professional
development project that utilizes the Designing Effective Science
Instruction (DESI)framework to integrate nanoscience and technology
content into existing science curricula. It is a collaboration
between Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning (McREL),
the Stanford Nanofabrication Facility (SNF), the Georgia Institute of
Technology, the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network
(NNIN), and ASPEN Associates.
We are seeking 30 public high school science teachers to participate
in our year-long, nationwide pilot test of NanoTeach beginning summer
2010. Teachers who complete all requirements will receive a stipend
of $3,000 (15 days at $200/day) for the out-of-classroom time
required for participation.
The application deadline is January 8, 2010. A special NanoTeach
Question-and-Answer webinar is scheduled for November 17 at 5 p.m.
EST. For more information, go to: http://www.mcrel.org/NanoTeach/
