Larry Lebofsky, on Project ARTIST The high moments were the heyday of what was called Project ARTIST, Astronomy Related Teacher In-Service Training. We got a very large grant from National Science Foundation for working with teachers to teach other teachers. That, to me, is probably the highlight of what I’ve done over the years. I did that for five years; a very successful program. People are still using some of our materials. Part of me says: Well, I’m at the college level; what I should be doing is at the college level. But the other part of me says: You’re not going to get good students unless you provide better training for the kids at a younger level. |
At the college level, you’re not going to get better future students unless you better prepare the future teachers. So when I’m looking in my classes I always grab a hold, so to speak, of my future teachers. Training the future teachers, giving them the background they need at the college level so they can teach future students at the University and better educate the public is, I think, an important thing to do. |
