Developing Elementary and Middle School Leaders in Urban Districts to Improve Teaching and Learning of Science
The 2010 USEL Summer Academy is full. If you are interested in attending future academies, please contact Damaries Blondonville at urbanscience@nsta.org or call her at 703-312-9206.
The purpose of the 2010 USEL Academy is to positively affect student achievement through the development of leaders who will help guide reform of the learning, teaching, and assessing of science in elementary/middle schools. Leaders will be driven by personal experiences, knowledge of the change process, use of research, relevant data, and the leadership skills developed in collaboration with others. This exciting and powerful institute will be facilitated by Dr. Adriane Dorrington. The featured guest speaker will be Dr. Bernard Harris, Jr., astronaut.
