SSP 2011 Fellows Program applications opens November 15, 2010

Here's a good opportunity to circulate to science teachers:  

The Society for Science & the Public (SSP) opens its application period for SSP Fellows, which provides teachers with financial support and training to transmit science inspiration and success to their science students.  Fellows are selected via a national competition, and guide students to produce high-quality project-based research which can then be selected for SSP's premier science competition, the Intel Science Talent Search. 

Applicants must submit a five-part online application, and be able to attend the Fellows Institute in Washington DC from July 25 through July 30, 2011. 

Fellows will receive $8,500 (renewable annually) for up to four years to start a scientific research program in their schools. Included in the training is support for attendance at the Fellows Institute, also worth two graduate credits.
