Educational partnerships between scientists\/faculty and K-12 teachers
\noffer mutual professional benefits.The National Institute for
\nMathematical and Biological Synthesis (NIMBioS) bringsthe two
\ncommunities together through its Teacher Collaboration Program
\n<http:\/\/www.nimbios.org\/education\/teacher_collaboration<\/wbr><\/wbr><\/a>> (TCP). The
\nprogram pairs K-12 teachers with interest in mathematics and biology
\nwith active researchers in the math biology community including:
\nfaculty, post-docs, and educators from the institute and recruits from
\nthe math biology community.<\/p>\n

Collaboration activities can include electronic emails, phone sessions,
\nteaching projects, classroom visits (in person or via web), cooperation
\nfor after school activities (in person or via web), curriculum
\ndiscussion, enhanced applications to math biology, and discussions on
\nwork assignments.<\/p>\n

Partnerships promote the unity of science and math education. Through
\ntheir partners, teachers gain access to resources and knowledge of the
\nlatest science and math research and perspective on education at the
\nuniversity level. And through their K-12 teacher partners, scientists
\nand university faculty improve communication skills, learn the latest in
\npedagogy, and gain insight into education at the K-12 level.<\/p>\n

NIMBioS also maintains a TCP Wiggio, an online collaboration community,
\nfor the purpose of sharing ideas, information, resources and event
\nschedules.<\/p>\n
