Science Teacher Retreat, summer 2006
The
University of Nebraska Medical Center's Rural Health Education
Network (RHEN) sponsors a Science Teacher Retreat each summer.
Teachers learn new science teaching methods and improve their
inquiry skills in order to expand their science curriculum.
Though a partnership with the Nebraska Department of Education
and Educational Service Unit 10, the RHEN office provided a
capstone program of 60 hours over a two-week period in summer
2006 for 17 high school science teachers from 16 rural Nebraska
school districts. This workshop is a great opportunity in
providing science experiences to Nebraska's rural teachers, as
well as a chance to gain resources and learn from one another.
