This is a unique program designed for science teachers in middle and high school or who wish to teach science at that level. The program has two parts: the first part is science content focused on deepening the participants' understanding of physical science, life science, and earth science. The content courses are designed to increase the participants' comfort with various branches of science, thereby enhancing their teaching with additional depth and breadth of content. The second part is teacher leadership in which teachers are trained to become leaders and advocates for math and science education in their own school and district. The courses in the program present the content and pedagogy in a parallel manner and connect the two throughout the program.
