  1. Teacher In Service Program (TISP) 01-Oct-2009 IEEE Ottawa Section http://ieee.org/go/ottawa

  2. Agenda Introductions Objectives IEEE Overview TISP Overview Q&A

  3. Introductions Jennifer Ng – TISP Champion jng@ieee.org Raed Abdullah – Ottawa Section Chair RaedAbdullah@ieee.org

  4. Objectives Develop challenging activities for pre-university students Form collaborative relationships with School Boards

  5. IEEE Quick Facts More than 375,000 members, including over 80,000 students, in over 160 countries. 329 Sections in ten geographic regions worldwide. About 1,800 chapters that unite local members with similar technical interests. More than 1,750 student branches at colleges and universities in 80 countries. 38 societies and 7 technical councils representing the wide range of technical interests. 144 transactions, journals and magazines. More than 900 conferences sponsored annually Nearly 1,300 standards and projects under development Volunteerism is a core value of IEEE

  6. Concerns • Flat or declining engineering/STEM enrollments in most developed nations • Coupled with disappointing performance of youth in Mathematics • Insufficient number of engineers and engineering educational programs in most developing countries • Asia is accelerating their number of engineers per capita • Women & minority students conspicuously still under-represented • Public perception of engineers/ engineering/ technology is largely misinformed • Resulting in early decisions that block the path of children to Engineering/STEM fields

  7. Percentage of Science Degrees Awarded Source: Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development Science degrees include life sciences, physical sciences, mathematics, statistics, computer sciences, engineering, manufacturing, and building

  10. The Teacher In Service Program (TISP) • IEEE Section engineers develop and present technology-oriented projects to local pre-university educators • Started at the Florida West Coast Section in 2001  • Lesson plans in English and Spanish for teachers and engineers • Lesson plans matched to educational standards • URL • http://www.ieee.org/web/education/preuniversity/tispt/index.html

  11. TISP Metrics To Date • 50+ presentations to date • More than 675 pre-university educators have participated (Science, technology and mathematics educators) • These educators represent 70,000+ students • Recent countries include South Africa, Peru, Canada and China • Over 90% of the respondents agreed: • They would use the concepts presented in their instruction • Doing so would enhance the level of technological literacy of their students

  12. TISP Workshop Objectives To promote an awareness of the need for technological literacy To provide a hands-on demonstration of mathematics, engineering, and technology for classroom use To promote awareness of the connections between mathematics, science, and technology standards To provide information about resources available to support mathematics, science, and technology instruction

  13. Suggested TISP Half Day Program • Introduction / Background 15min • Share objectives • Connections to state standards • Discussion / Presentation of concepts Activity #1 30min • Group work/hands-on segment 45min • Debrief and discuss applications 20min • Discussion / Presentation of concepts Activity #2 30min • Group work/hands-on segment 45min • Debrief and discuss applications 20min • Summarize concepts presented and objectives 20min • Questions/comments 10min • Housekeeping 5min • Complete the teacher feedback questionnaire
