The Shodor Education Foundation, Inc (Dr. Robert Panoff, Director) teams with the Latin American and Caribbean Consortium of Engineering Institutions (LACCEI), and Engineering for the Americas (EftA) (of the Organization of American States) to conduct a planning and development effort in Colombia leading to an expanded international collaboration between the US and Colombia to support teacher training programs promoting inquiry-based learning enhanced by computational thinking tools, techniques, and technologies. Key US and Colombian LACCEI members, and pedagogical experts in the US and Colombia will meet to develop a regional/ national teacher training program targeting STEM teachers and university professors teaching 6th grade through the first two years of undergraduate. The Program Development Workshop consists of two parts. The first is to conduct a Train the Trainers workshop for the participants to acquire knowledge of the technology and pedagogy being implemented through Shodor in conjunction with techniques and technologies being developed by the ONDAS program at COLCIENCIAS (NSF counterpart); pedagogical experts in Colombia from the National Pedagogical University; and the research group EDUCING from ACOFI (the Colombian Engineering Faculty Association- Dr. Eduardo Selva, Executive Director). The second part is on the development of a teacher training program in Colombia in the identified approaches and technologies that can scale regionally or nationally. By conducting this workshop in a Hispanic environment, it is anticipated that Noyce scholars and U.S. researchers will learn about multicultural issues that affect motivation of minorities to participate in STEM; new materials would be available in Spanish and English. The exposure of interaction in situation of multiple languages and multiple cultures sensitizes participants and further globalizes them. The interaction provides collaboration among the U.S. and Colombian teachers trained in the program, providing international collaboration activities within their classroom and affecting the globalization of the students. The materials will also be available and disseminated through Shodor's National Computational Science Institute and its Computational Science Education Reference Desk, a Pathway portal of the National Science Digital Library to all schools implementing the NSF Noyce Teacher Scholarship and Fellowship program. This international project is jointly funded through the Office of International Science and Engineering and the EHR/DUE Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship and Fellowship Program.

Shodor Education Foundation，Inc（Robert Panoff博士）与拉丁美洲和加勒比工程机构联盟（LACCEI）（LACCEI）以及（美国国家组织）的工程（EFTA）的团队（EFTA）进行哥伦比亚在哥伦比亚进行扩展的培训工具，从技术。美国和哥伦比亚的主要成员以及美国和哥伦比亚的教学专家将开会，以制定针对STEM教师和大学教授在本科前两年教学六年级的区域/国家教师培训计划。计划开发研讨会由两个部分组成。首先是为参与者开展培训师研讨会，以与Colciencias（NSF对应者）的Ondas计划开发的技术和技术一起通过Shodor与技术和技术相结合获得知识；全国教育大学的哥伦比亚教学专家；以及ACOFI（哥伦比亚工程学院协会 - 执行董事Eduardo Selva博士）的研究小组。第二部分是在哥伦比亚的一项教师培训计划的制定方面，可以通过确定的方法和技术在区域或全国扩展。 通过在西班牙裔环境中进行该研讨会，可以预料，Noyce学者和美国研究人员将了解影响少数群体参与STEM的动机的多元文化问题。新材料将提供西班牙语和英语。在多种语言和多种文化情况下，互动的暴露使参与者敏感并进一步全球化。这种互动提供了在该计划中培训的美国和哥伦比亚教师之间的合作，从而在课堂内提供了国际合作活动，并影响了学生的全球化。这些材料还将通过Shodor的国家计算科学研究所及其计算科学教育咨询台，这是国家科学数字图书馆的通道门户网站，用于实施NSF NOYCE NOYCE教师奖学金和团契计划。该国际项目由国际科学与工程办公室以及EHR/Do Robert Noyce教师奖学金和奖学金计划共同资助。
