NWO Projected Goals and Activities - FY 2008 NWO Vision: The Northwest Ohio Center of Excellence aims to advance science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education for people of all ages. Our purpose is to work with community partners to (a) generate new knowledge about the science of teaching and learning, (b) apply this knowledge by developing the expertise of K-12 educators and higher education faculty, (c) increase public support for, and understanding of, the STEM subject areas, and (d) to stimulate the interest of young people, especially those in underrepresented groups, in these rewarding fields of study and career opportunities. The following NWO goals guide this vision. NWO Goals and Scope of Work: NWO will attain the above goals through the following goal-aligned activities: Goal 1: Develop the expertise of pre-service and in-service teachers and higher education faculty through research-based professional development framed by investigative science and mathematics teaching and learning. Center Activities: a. Conduct monthly regional professional development meetings (NWO Inquiry Series for K-12 science and mathematics pre-service and in-service teachers). Continue in the FY 2008 scope of work. 2 0 0 7 N W O Ce n t e r o f E xcellence • A n n u a l R e p o r t 29
