TEACHER PROGRAM

The Teacher Program provides 7-14 teachers with pedagogical and collegial support to develop hands-on experiences into embeddable lesson plans for enriching energy-related science concepts at their home institutions.

Over nine days, these experiences will include site visits to coal, natural gas and oil resources and the support of a peer community of motivated educators.

At the culmination of the program, participants will submit a minimum of two embeddable lessons designed for use at their home institution, and provide feedback on how the lessons are implemented.

Participants will earn a stipend of $100 per day and may choose to earn two continuing education credits through the University of Wyoming. Optional weekend tours will be offered to explore the scenic, cultural and historic dimensions of Northeast Wyoming.

Food and accommodations will be provided by Sheridan College to non-commuting participants. All participants are responsible for any travel costs to and from Sheridan, WY.
