High school teachers are increasingly concerned with sparking and maintainingstudent interest in science, particularly as classroom laboratory activities have grown stale due to their age. A limited number of high school biology, chemistry and physics teachers were invited to a one week pilot program at the University of Arkansas, designed to introduce the teachers to science and engineering experiments and create enthusiasm for science. The format for the program included: - introduction of the topic with background; - experimentation by teachers in small groups, led by the coordinator; - discussion with applications; - experimentation with teachers leading the exercise; and, - experiment/program evaluation. This paper presents results from the program as carried out in the summer of 2006.
