The Immediate Objectives
Train IEEE volunteers to train pre-university teachers, so that the teachers can be more effective in bringing engineering and engineering design into the classroom
Train IEEE volunteers to approach the school system in order to make the teacher training possible
Make this activity sustainable and long-term

The Long-term Goals Empower Section “champions” to develop or
enhance collaborations with their local pre-university community to promote applied inquiry-based learning
Enhance the level of technological literacy of pre-university educators
Encourage pre-university students to pursue technical careers, including engineering
Increase the general level of technological literacy of pre-university students for many years.

Just What Is In-Service Training?
“Pre-service education” - Training teachers receive before beginning their teaching careers.
“In-Service education” - Training teachers receive after entering the classroom.
In some countries, teachers must accumulate “in-service points” every few years to renew their teaching certificates.
Similar to the professional development hours some countries/states/provinces require for renewing engineering licenses

Metrics To Date
Over 90% of the respondents agreed:
They would use the concepts presented in their instruction
Doing so would enhance the level of technological literacy of their students

Design Objective
Design and implement a candy bag using the available materials
Limit of 1 meter of tape per group of 2
The bag is to be hand carried
The bag is to be sturdy, functional and aesthetical
A design with unusual shape or “twist” is highly desirable

Principles & Standards for School Mathematics
Geometry: Use visualization, spatial reasoning, and
geometric modeling to solve problems
Analyze characteristics and properties of two- and three-dimensional geometric shapes and develop mathematical arguments about geometric relationships
![Page 19: 1 IEEE Teacher In-Service Training Program Region 9 August 2008 Cordoba, Argentina.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062404/551b05a7550346f70d8b587f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Problem Solving: Recognize and apply geometric ideas in areas
outside of the mathematics classroom Apply and adapt a variety of appropriate strategies
Communication: Communicate mathematical thinking coherently
and clearly to peers, teachers, and others
