From: Carter, Heather [mailto:HFC2@xxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 03, 2005 11:32 AM To: Carter, Heather; Nair, Alison Subject: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Science Ambassador Program We are pleased to announce the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities’ (NCBDDD) Science Ambassador Program. The Science Ambassador Program is a professional development program, in which selected middle and high school science teachers work with CDC scientists and educational experts at the Georgia Department of Education, to develop science lesson plans on public health topics that meet National Science Education Standards. Selected teachers come to CDC for in an intensive workshop led by CDC scientists June 13-18, 2005. The workshop features a variety of sessions on public health topics, including presentations on folic acid and birth defects, epidemiology, surveillance, fetal alcohol syndrome, and genetics. Following the workshop, teachers work with CDC to create two exemplary lesson plans based on topics presented at the workshop. Once these lesson plans have been reviewed and published on the CDC and other educational websites, teachers will implement and evaluate them in the classroom.
I would be happy to send you additional information, such as brochures, fact sheets, or posters to distribute to interested schools or teachers.
We feel this is a great opportunity for science teachers to work closely with CDC scientists to bring new and innovative science materials back to science classroom’s in your state. An application is attached and is due to CDC by March 15, 2005. This is a competitive program, so please help us bring this information to teachers in your state early! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 404-498-4080 or HCarter@xxxxxxx.
