A partnership of school, university, and industry people will carry out         a multipronged program to demonstrate how elementary science education          can be strengthened through a well designed cooperative effort.                 Elements of the program are:                                                                                                                                    A Science Resource Network of industrial scientists will be created to          support elementary teachers in a variety of ways.                                                                                                               Elementary teacher Science Specialists will work with each school to            demonstrate the various models for use of this kind of teaching                 approach.                                                                                                                                                       Science-weak elementary teachers will be able to volunteer as Science           Fellows for special training programs to overcome those weaknesses.                                                                                             Permanent Elementary Sciences Alliances of elementary teachers, other           school and industry people, and university professors will be formed to         provide a reinforcing mechanism for the elementary teachers.                                                                                                    A program of Incentives and Awards will be established to recognize             exemplary elementary science teaching.                                                                                                                          The partnership will undertake appropriate Science Education Advocacy           activities.                                                                                                                                                     The goal of the project is to demonstrate how a comprehensive community         supported program can lead to major improvements in elementary science          teaching.                                                                                                                                                       Cost sharing by the partners will total a minimum of 23 % of the NSF            funding.
