  7. Opportunities NanoTeach is recruiting teachers for a year-long, nationwide pilot program starting in the summer of 2010. Utilizing the Designing Effective Science Instruction (DESI) framework, teachers will learn to integrate nanoscience and technology content (NS&T) into their existing curricula. Through lessons and experiences that model the DESI instructional framework, participants will investigate dynamic NS&T content while delving into strategies that support effective science teaching. ● a $3,000 stipend ● paid travel and lodging to Denver, Colorado Interested? Mark your calendar! Nov 17, 2009 5 p.m. EST NanoTeach Question-and-Answer Webinar ● Jan 8, 2010 Pilot Test Applications Due July 12–23, 2010 NanoTeach commences with two-weeks of professional development in Denver Learn more or apply… 30 high school teachers who teach physical science concepts Energize your teaching with ... effective instructional strategies to integrate cutting-edge nanoscience and technology now! real-world applications ● professional connections that foster meaningful and dynamic teaching and learning! http://www.mcrel.org/NanoTeach/Recruiting
