Improving Teaching Practices of STEM Teachers: The Teacher Synergistic Institute in Warren County
Abstract
The Teacher Synergistic Institute, funded by the National Science Foundation’s Advanced Technological Education directorate, provided professional development for high school teachers in Warren County for four years. There were two-week periods of professional development in the summers, which most teachers followed up with involvement in iDiscovery, an online collaborative learning community for teachers. The teachers involved reported satisfaction with the summer workshops and iDiscovery, and they learned instructional strategies and made changes to their teaching practices.
