Abstract

Pathway to Science (PTS) is a nationally funded project through the National Science Foundation (Award # 0934829) involving a university’s Colleges of Education, Arts and Sciences, and Engineering Departments in partnership with a local school district. All entities involved have a vested interest in increasing the number of certified secondary science teachers as all are interested in producing students who are better prepared in science at both the collegiate and secondary levels. This chapter explores how technology is used in the training of science teachers and how technology is used to retain them as science teachers once they are employed.
