Applications will be reviewed by Drs. Ajmera and Crary, to select ten teachers targeting five pre-service and five in-service teachers. Applicants will be selected based on how well their courses align with the proposed research projects. Select applicants must be: (1) teaching in STEM programs, (2) from schools seeking to initiate a STEM program, or (3) pre-service teachers focusing on STEM education. Underrepresented and under-served groups including women in STEM fields, teachers from Hispanic, African American, or Native American ethnicities, veterans, teachers from rural communities, and those individuals with disabilities will receive preference. In order to establish good mentorship between in-service and preservice teachers, preference will be given to teachers with at least two years of teaching experience.
