Professional Learning Community

Professional Learning Community (PLC) forums, working teams of three to five teachers, foster participants' engagement in lesson development, peer review, revision of lessons, review of student work, and reflection of their implementation using a supportive network. PLC meetings will be facilitated by a district site coordinator with access to members of the NanoTeach project team.

The NanoTeach Google Site will house relevant summer agendas, materials, model lessons, resources, as well as link to online discussion forums. Participants will have access to nanoscientists from the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, who will respond to content queries.
