Project
ESTT
Project ESTT is a
Grades 6 - 8 teacher enhancement leadership project that is designed for
Instructional Team Members (ITMs) and Science Teacher Mentors (STMs) who
are participating in the Texas Regional Collaboratives for Excellence in
Science Teaching, a statewide program of 20 partnerships (Regional Collaboratives)
that are committed to providing Texas Science Teachers with sustained and
high intensity science professional development.
|
These two excellent programs
are supporting area teachers by supplying funding to improve science teaching
in area schools. The encompassing goal is to provide the means for teachers
to improve their classroom skills by placing tangible resources into the
hands of teachers and integrating technology and hands-on teaching into
today's classrooms.
These science skills are more
critical today than ever before. Science will shape our future and
today's children... are our future.
the
Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board Eisenhower Grant Program
and Project
ESTT are making a real difference
in the lives of children in Northeast Texas.
