Professional Development
PIMSER P-12 Mathematics/Science Outreach has several opportunities for professional development for P-12 Teachers.
Newton's Universe focuses on physics and technology for middle school teachers and their students. The project's main purpose is to enhance rural middle school students' understanding of standards based physics concepts. It also augments their science process skills and deepens their involvement in their own learning. The project accomplishes this by enhancing teachers' understanding in physics through a series of distance learning courses designed specifically for teachers. At the same time it provides tools, strategies and activities for learning through inquiry and integrating technology as a key part of that learning. www.as.uky.edu/newtonsuniverse
