Summer course: Modeling Physics 2010 - Making Learning
Engaging
Join us for two weeks in the beautiful Black Hills for a course that
will help you engage your students and make science & math meaningful
to
them!
Teachers of physics, physical science, chemistry, or math in grades
9-12 are encouraged to apply. Teams of science and math teachers from
the same school are particularly encouraged. A stipend bonus will be
given to members of school teams including a science teacher and a math
teacher. Our goal is to give science and math teachers ways to
coordinate what they do. The modeling materials can easily be adapted to
other science and math topics.
Dates: July 12-16 & July 19-23 at Black Hills State University
(Tentative)
Stipend: $600 + $120 for followups
Housing & meals provided to teachers outside of commuting range.
