Section leaders host Teacher In-Service
Program (TISP) training workshops for
engineers interested in working with
their schools and school systems and in
helping increase the level of
technological literacy of local
pre-university educators and their
students.
The overall goals of the training
workshop is to:
- Empower Section
“champions” to develop
collaborations with their local
pre-university community to promote
applied inquiry-based learning
- Enhance the level of technological
literacy of pre-university educators
- Encourage pre-university students
to pursue technical careers,
including engineering
- Increase the general level of
technological literacy of
pre-university students for many years
Participants learn about tips and
strategies on how to connect with their
local educators, participate in hands-on
activities, hear from key local
educators and receive resources to help
them conduct teacher in-service
presentations. A typical agenda includes:
- TISP Background and Scope
- TISP Hands-on Activities
- Challenges and Opportunities in the
Local School System
- Tips on How To Begin
- Alignment with Education Standards
- Educator Panel Discussion
