Modeling Workshops in high school physics, chemistry, and/or 
physical science will be held in summer 2010 in Arizona, Alabama, 
Miami FL, Georgia, Chicago IL, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, New Orleans LA, 
Maine, Michigan, Minneapolis MN, New Jersey, Albuquerque NM, New 
York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pittsburgh PA, northern Pennsylvania, 
South Dakota, Tennessee, Dallas TX, Spokane WA, and Wisconsin.  (Also 
in Missouri, pending funding.)
    Modeling Workshops in 11th grade biology will be held in 
Pittsburgh PA and Tennessee, for teachers in Physics First/Capstone 
Biology sequences.

    Modeling Workshops are peer-led. Modeling Instruction is one of 
two K-12 science programs designated by the U.S. Department of 
Education as EXEMPLARY.
    Stipends at most sites, usually for in-state teachers. Graduate 
credit available at some sites.
      
    Typical comments by teachers:
*  After the first year of teaching using the modeling method, I 
wished I had learned about modeling years ago. (David Braunschweig, 
Madison WI. Vernier consultant)
*  Most useful course I have taken since becoming a teacher. 
*  Thanks to taking physics modeling course work, I am highly 
qualified in physics.
*  I learned a tremendous amount and am all fired up to teach physics 
this fall!
*  I learned more about teaching and physics this summer than in 5 
years of college!
*  Great chem workshop.
*  It was, without a doubt, the single greatest professional 
development experience of my career.
