The National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) has awarded a $460,335 Project Grant to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) for the "ETSTE DCL - Collaborative Research: Teacher CHIP Professional Learning Program." The goal of this 3-year project is to establish a regional professional learning community of 8th through 10th grade teachers who will integrate chip industry content and evidence-based practices into secondary education classroom instruction. Key activities include field-based capacity building experiences with industry partners, leadership skill development, co-design of interactive simulations and lesson plans, summer institutes, and peer-to-peer training opportunities. The project builds partnerships among teachers, industry representatives, discipline-based educators, and instructional designers to place content expertise and experience in the physical sciences and advanced technologies at the center of the project activities.
