9911770DOUBLERTERC and Lesley College propose a four-year, professional development materials project to develop and deliver an online science education masters degree program for teachers, curriculum specialists and instructional resource persons responsible for K-8 science education. The program will prepare participants to integrate inquiry-based science pedagogy and web-based information technologies into daily practices. The project will also deepen understanding of online learning models and strategies for professional development.The 33-credit hour program will be comprised of six-credit hour modules and an introductory three-credit hour course entitled "Try Science." Participants will do one module of work each college term, thus completing the program in two years. Each module will have two instructors who together will bring science and pedagogy expertise to learners. Participants will conduct real-world investigations, which will be facilitated through on-line instruction. This approach will open the course to those from areas without convenient access to university campuses. With increasingly common technologies-Internet connectivity, a web browser and CD-ROM-learning will be accessible in teachers' homes or schools in asynchronous time, allowing teachers to better balance personal commitments and professional growth. Approximately 25 participants will move through the master's degree program together. In addition, within the project time frame, it is anticipated that a minimum of 500 teachers will receive 90-135 hours of professional development.The request is for $2,447,668.

9911770Doublerterc and Lesley College提出了一个为期四年的专业发展材料项目，旨在为教师，课程专家和教学资源人员开发和提供一个在线科学教育硕士学位计划，负责K-8科学教育。 该计划将使参与者准备将基于询问的科学教学法和基于Web的信息技术整合到日常实践中。 该项目还将加深对在线学习模型和专业发展策略的理解。33个学时的计划将包括六学分小时模块和题为“尝试科学”的介绍性的三学时课程。 参与者将在每个大学学期进行一个工作模块，从而在两年内完成该计划。 每个模块将有两位教练一起将科学和教学专业知识带给学习者。 参与者将进行现实世界调查，并通过在线指导来促进。 这种方法将为来自地区的人们开放课程，而无需方便进入大学校园。 借助越来越常见的技术互动连接，在异步时间的教师的家中或学校中，将可以使用网络浏览器和CD-ROM学习，从而可以更好地平衡个人承诺和专业成长。 大约有25名参与者将一起完成硕士学位课程。 此外，在项目时间范围内，预计至少有500名教师将获得90-135小时的专业发展。该请求的价格为2,447,668美元。
