Welcome
Hi Everyone,
It was great to meet many of you at the introductory meeting last month, and I am looking forward to the opportunity to work with you all this coming year. I certainly appreciate your willingness to participate in this program and think we will have a wonderfully successful year working together.
All my best,
Bill Robertson

Welcome to the UTEP Physics Teacher Quality Grant Blog
Hi Folks,
Welcome to the UTEP Physics Teacher Quality Grant Blog. Come back whenever you like, to get the latest updates on the program.
TQE Program Summary: The UTEP Physics Teacher Preparation Teacher Quality Grant will address the El Paso area need for increased secondary school physics teaching capacity. It will partner with local school districts in developing physics content knowledge, and content-pedagogy in science teachers who are either currently teaching out-of-field or who are teaching Integrated Physics and Chemistry (IPC) with a science composite certification. The grant will therefore focus on IPC teachers, especially those who are alternatively certified, or who have minimum levels of physics courses or experience in their background. Teachers from related content fields (e.g.: middle school science or high school science) will also be welcomed, particularly if they are trying to develop their capacity to teach physics, or are seeking physics certification. UTEP will provide graduate level physics and physics content-pedagogy courses along with a summer workshop and a series of monthly workshops and activities for IPC teachers and teachers in related fields.
In sum: This program seeks to provide intensive, hands-on physics instruction to school teachers, with a particular focus on supporting IPC teachers. Our instructional team includes Dr Milijana Suskavcevic (UTEP Physics), Dr. Laura Serpa (UTEP Geophysics), Dr. Olga Kosheleva (UTEP Mathematics Education), and Dr. Brian Giza (UTEP Science and Technology Education). Your instructional team works together as partners - we hope and expect you to do so also...and lets have fun learning science while we work together, OK?
We especially seek Texas teachers who are teaching IPC, and who are either (1) teaching outside of their area of certification, or (2) who have fewer than 30 college credit hours of physics on their college transcripts.
best wishes,
Dr. Giza
