Subject: Try Teaching for $150

Description:
DO YOU LOVE MATH OR SCIENCE?  HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT TEACHING?  SIGN-UP
FOR TLPL 101!  A 1-CREDIT COURSE.

Here's a chance to try teaching and earn a $150 scholarship for completing
the course with a "B" grade or higher.  The course will focus on
inquiry-based teaching.  You will strengthen your oral communication and
organization skills.  The course requires that you observe a local elementary
school teacher twice and then teach two science or math lessons.  Yes, that's
correct.  You are required to be in the elementary school a total of four
times during the semester.  We suggest that you allow a 3-hour window for
each lesson to include travel time, set-up, instruction, and wrap-up when
teaching the lessons.  All of the schools are on the UM shuttle line.  A
background check is required.  TLPL 101 meets for one-hour and twenty minutes
once a week.

This is an excellent way to connect with the UM surrounding community.
You'll be able to inspire the next generation of scientists and
mathematicians.
