Southern NJ ETTCs Partnership
Program Introduction
Meeting September 15, 1999
This partnership among Stevens Institute's Center for Improved Engineering and Science Education (CIESE) and five Southern New Jersey Educational Technology Training Centers (located in Cape May, Atlantic, Cumberland, Salem, Camden Counties) is an abbreviated version of the highly successful Stevens K-12 Partnership, a 78 hour professional development initiative that provides teachers with opportunities to explore in-depth curriculum materials relevant for their own classroom needs and to serve as staff development resources for their own schools and districts. With funding from the NJ Statewide Systemic Initiative, this 36 hour series of workshops is the backbone of the more comprehensive package.
