The Exploratorium Teacher Institute
(TI) has been a professional home for middle and high school science
teachers for over twenty years. (TI brochure in PDF)
The TI offers a rich mix of hands-on
activities based on Exploratorium exhibits, content-based discussions,
classroom materials, web-based teaching resources, and machine shop
experiences.
We offer Summer
Institutes and district-wide in-services for both new and
experienced teachers. Our growing family of alumni may also attend a
variety of Saturday workshops. All program participants are provided
with stipends for attending our institutes and workshops. |

Introducing our
new Teacher Institute (TI) podcasts. Currently, we're featuring SmallTalk,
a monthly series where we chat about nanotechnology with leading scientists,
thinkers, artists, writers, and visionaries, and look at quirky nanoscience
stories in the news. TI's Dr. Stephanie Chasteen hosts the series. We'll feature
additional TI podcasts in the future; be sure to stop by again. |
