| The Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has created an online 8-week professional development course: Nanoscience for Teachers. Educators received graduate level credit, completed weekly online quizzes and surveys, attended online discussions, and created nanoscience modules for use in their own classrooms. The effectiveness of the online course was evaluated using pre-surveys, formative, and summative assessments. From areas around the country, sixteen teachers participated in the first version during the summer of 2006, and ten teachers participated in the second version during the spring of 2007. Presented are the results of these assessments and improvements made in the course design for subsequent offerings. |
