| Housed in the Department of Curriculum
and Instruction at the University of Victoria, the primary function
of CETUS is to develop and encourage science education leadership
in elementary and middle years schools by working with teachers in
several school districts. These teachers will develop the expertise
to be science leaders serving their districts by providing support
for excellent science education in local schools. This development
programme will be supported by a network of professional scientists
at the University of Victoria willing and able to provide teachers
with background information on science concepts. CETUS will coordinate
the development and support of the science education teacher-leaders
and will ensure that these leaders are acquainted with the latest
information and insights on teaching children science. |
