BUILD A MENTOR-TEACHER TEAM
AT YOUR SCHOOL!


Share What You've Learned
With People Who Need It The Most

Do you enjoy teaching mathematics and science and appreciate the reform efforts in these areas?

Would you like to share your expertise and enthusiasm with peers and teachers-in-training?

Is there at least one other experienced teacher in your school with similar traits and interests?


IF SO... each of you could "charge up" your career by forming a team of mentor teachers for the Maryland Collaborative for Teacher Preparation (MCTP). You'll offer support and guidance to MCTP pre-service teachers during field experiences and student teaching at your school. To prepare for your role, you'll attend a 10-day Summer Institute (and a few workshops during the school year) where you'll learn and share exciting new concepts in teaching and integrating science, mathematics, and technology.

MCTP will pay a stipend, housing, and travel expenses, and costs for substitutes as needed.

The 1997 Summer Institute will be held on campus at the University of Maryland College Park from July 20 - August 1.

APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE AFTER JANUARY 6 FROM THE MCTP OFFICE AT (301) 405-1255 OR E-MAIL TO DS219@UMAIL.UMD.EDU


Closing date for receipt of applications is February 21, 1997
