Abstract
Sustained, high-quality professional-development programs for secondary science teachers as envisioned by both the National Science Education Standards and The Glenn Commission are still not readily available. This report details a professional-development degree program developed collaboratively by the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) Department of Chemistry—a research department with no previous teacher education mission—and Penn’s Graduate School of Education along with area school districts. The program integrates chemistry content, chemistry pedagogy and research, and an inquiry-based teaching-learning model. Program design features and rationale along with project evaluation and results are reported.
