Guitars in the Classroom? Absolutely. This National Science Foundation STEM Guitar Project provides innovative professional development to high school and community college faculty in collaborative design and rapid manufacturing. Faculty teams will take part in an intense five day guitar design/build project. Each faculty member will build his/her own custom electric guitar and will engage in student centered learning activities that relate the guitar design to specific math, science and engineering topics. Participants will leave this weeklong experience with their custom-made guitars, curriculum modules that can be immediately integrated into the faculty team''s school curriculum, and much more.

The Industrial Advisory Committee for FLATE brings industry directly to the Center. This board consists of members of industry partners from manufacturing community, representatives from related professional and industry organizations, and others in the community interested in promoting and supporting education and training of the manufacturing workforce at various levels. This group will meet 2-3 times per year and is under the guidance of the St. Petersburg College Principal Investigator, Mr. Brad Jenkins.
Job shadowing is designed to increase career awareness, provide authentic models for students, and reinforce the link between classroom learning and work requirements. Any workplace can provide an opportunity for job shadowing.
Students can now use CareerME.org to share all expects of their job shadowing experience, well beyond the the traditional written report. Presenting a report with an intended audience beyond the classroom encourages careful listening and interviewing skills, writing with a purpose, and accurately presenting the essence of their shadowed organization and mentor.
This webinar demonstrates how a student can prepare to be a CareerME.org profile contributor. Participants will be introduced to the CareerME.org job shadow preparation process and how your students can participate, contribute, and share with other students exploring companies to learn more about advanced manufacturing careers.
Who Should Attend: High school teachers, high school guidance counselors, college professors (2 and 4-year), and program coordinators.
Duration 1 hour

We would cordially invite you to participate in this years STEM 2011: Bridging Research and Practice Conference to be held on January 19-21, 2011 at the Renaissance Hotel in Austin, Texas. The Conference acts as a venue for educators and administrators to share current STEM research as it pertains to the fields of Science, Engineering, and Mathematics. Our goals for this conference include raising awareness and promoting the fields of STEM Education, to promote best practices regarding research and collaboration amongst teachers and administrators, and to raise awareness of the importance of STEM education and careers. There will be opportunities for individuals both students and professionals to present posters and workshop sessions January 20 through 21. We are proud to be part of the growing movement in recognizing the importance of STEM education in the United States. We hope you will be able to accept our invitation to present an exhibit, and join us in this effort.
Sometimes what seemed crystal-clear when the evaluation of your grant was being planned gets a little fuzzy once the data are actually in. Whether you have some evaluation data in hand or are still in the planning stage, this webinar will help you figure out what do with all those ratings, rankings, checked boxes, open-ended comments, focus group/interview transcripts, grades, website data. We’ll address —how to select analytic procedures, how to interpret the results, and what do next. We’ll especially focus on how to go beyond simply describing the data to making sense of it so that it informs you about how well your project is doing and how you can improve your work. Joining the Evala|t|e team will be Chris Coryn, a leading authority on evaluation methodology and director of Western Michigan University’s Interisciplinary Ph.D. program in Evaluation. He’ll share his expert view on selecting analytic procedures (both at the design stage and post hoc), with practical consideration of the ATE context.

In this POGIL introductory workshop, faculty will experience a POGIL-based learning environment, analyze a POGIL activity in terms of the learning cycle, explore classroom facilitation and consider implementation ideas. Additional topics will be based on participants' interests to the extent possible. Open to all disciplines.
This workshop covers several important introductory topics related to MEMS fabrication: Crystallography, Oxidation, Light Interference and Etch. Participants will complete several activities to help them better identify crystal planes of silicon wafers, determine silicon oxide thickness based on its color, and calculate and estimate the growth rates and the etch rates of silicon dioxide. Workshop discussions will include where and how this material and the related activities can be incorporated into an existing curriculum.
This free 1 day workshop is being offered for area high school science teachers. Materials and lunch will be provided.
