Central State University Institute of Urban Education sponsors a two week summer program for 14, 15, and 16 year old students who have an interest and desire in becoming a science, math, or technology teacher. Students will not only learn the steps to becoming a teacher but will experience technology, math, and science concepts so that they can readily prepare a lesson plan to be written and delivered to a younger group of students.
Full scholarships are available to cover all program costs for up to 15 students. Students will be expected to participate in both weeks and complete several homework assignments. There will be exposure to teachers and scientists throughout the program. Lunch, field trips, and materials will be provided.
Application forms can be obtained by calling CSU at 937-376-6374.
This "pipeline" strategic initiative promotes and supports the incorporation of NASA content and programs into science, technology and mathematics curricula in classroom grades 4-9 across the United States. Targeting underserved populations in diverse geographic locations, NASA Explorer Schools will bring together educators, administrators, students and families in sustained involvement with NASA’S education programs.
Teams composed of full-time teachers and a school administrator develop and implement a three-year action plan to address local challenges in science, technology and mathematics education. This customized professional development plan will be available based on needs assessments and delivered through on-site school services and via distance-learning networks.
