Professional Workshops

Prior to select Hot Science – Cool Talks lecture and during the pre-lecture activities, ESI hosts a professional development workshop for area K-12 teachers.  These lectures are:

• Led by a UT resident expert or master teacher versed in the subject matter of the evening's lecture;
• Packed with creative ideas and interactive lessons for teachers to use to connect the science behind that evening’s event to their classroom and students;
• A great chance to question a content expert in a small setting to get additional insight into the evening's topic; and
• Worth professional development credit towards continuing education requirements.

Workshop attendees can also receive a free CD-ROM containing a video of a previous lecture along with STEM lesson plans and modules aligned to applicable state standards.
