*****************************************************************************
I'm part of a team of curriculum developers and researchers in Denver
developing a chemistry/astronomy summer science curriculum program for
at-risk pre-chemistry high school students. We're seeking a few expert
consultants to serve as "Board Advisors" who would convene in Denver 2-3
times per year (2 days each time) over three years (August 1, 2008 - July
31, 2011) to provide overall guidance on the project relative to the
quality, utility, and relevance of the curriculum and intervention we're
developing (e.g., content, lessons, teacher guidance, materials,
age/audience-appropriateness, feasibility, fidelity instruments).
Consultants will receive travel expenses and a stipend. We're also seeking a
few expert consultants for a development team who could assist us more often
with formative curriculum revisions. We're seeking individuals with
substantial expertise in any one or more of the following areas:
astronomy/chemistry high school curriculum development, summer learning
loss, informal education/out-of-school time learning for at-risk high school
students.
I you're interested in assisting us on this project or have someone to
recommend, please respond to me off-list. At this point, I'm just gathering
the names of experts who may be interested. The team will compile names and
make final selections in the next few weeks.
Thanks.
