[ISTATALK-L] Pre-service Teacher Summer Program at Argonne



Title: Message
Dear Colleagues,
Do you currently have a science or math student teacher in your building?
Or do you know of a junior or senior undergrad pursuing or completing an education major this year?
If so, Do I an have an opportunity for them!  Read on--
 

DOE's Preservice Teacher Program  (PST) is beginning its sixth year. This is a top notch science/math eight-week summer internship program at Argonne National Lab.  The purpose is to give future teachers experience and understanding of the research process, to engage these students as valued members of the scientific community!

 

Another major goal of the program is to transfer this experience into a useable lesson plan or Idea Journal for teaching at a particular grade level.  Elements of inquiry-centered learning and best practice will be interwoven into the weekly activities that put students on a teaching fast-track!.  Argonne’s master teacher, Nancy Nega, will be working very closely with participants and supporting them in many ways.  Nancy is a veteran science teacher and an active ISTA leader. Each year the program has received many positive testimonials and high ratings from participants due in large part to Nancy's mentoring efforts!

 

  • Receive $400 per week for eight weeks
  • Experience working with a real scientist and on a real research project
  • Hear about the research of many other scientists and cutting-edge areas
  • See first-hand what a national laboratory is like
  • Work closely in a small cadre with other PST interns
