| The Conversations in Science series
brings together UW science researchers and Madison-area science teachers. Designed
to stimulate discussion between scientists and science educators at all levels,
these conversations connect middle and high school classrooms with the
University's cutting-edge research. This concept is being expanded to establish
conversations about science between scientists and the community at large,
including families, non-science professionals, and civic, business, and
religious groups. The UW experience serves as a model for expanded offerings
involving scientists from other institutions with teachers and members of
communities across the state and nationwide. |
