Free Summer Teacher Institute — Math/Science/Art

This summer the NSF SPRITE project is offering a free teacher institute, which uses curriculum that integrates art, music, and student-created computer animation to teach math and science concepts. The curriculum is especially directed to girls and other students traditionally underrepresented in many areas of math and science.

The summer Teacher Institute, which takes place from July 24 to August 4, provides training in developing and implementing practical animation curriculum for use in individual classrooms. Teachers receive a $700.00 stipend for their participation, 5 free graduate education credits from Seattle Pacific University, and (thanks to the support of Microsoft) a free license for the use of the necessary software for both teachers and students.
