This grant provides partial support for an annual, two-week workshop held in Kansas City, Missouri, which introduces precollege teachers to fundamentals of weather observing, analysis, and forecasting, and equips them with modern instructional material for use in their own courses and in peer-training sessions at their home institutions. These workshops have been held for the past decade by the American Meteorological Society in collaboration with the National Weather Service. Typically, about 25 teachers participate, drawn from all parts of the United States. The objective is to improve the effectiveness of teachers in generating interest and understanding of science, technology, and mathematics among precollege students. The program is designed to promote working relations between teachers and scientists and to encourage the use in K-12 classrooms of recent research findings and the Web-delivered world meteorological data stream. This award supports the program for the five-year period beginning in 2002.

该赠款为在密苏里州堪萨斯城举行的年度为期两周的研讨会提供了部分支持，该研讨会向预科教师介绍了天气观察，分析和预测的基础知识，并为他们提供现代教学材料，以便在自己的课程中以及在他们的家庭机构中进行同伴培训。 在过去的十年中，美国气象学会与国家气象局合作举办了这些研讨会。 通常，大约25名教师参加了美国的各个地方。 目的是提高教师对预科学生对科学，技术和数学的兴趣和理解的有效性。 该计划旨在促进教师和科学家之间的工作关系，并鼓励在K-12教室中使用最近的研究结果和网络传递的世界气象数据流。 该奖项支持从2002年开始的五年期间的计划。
