The criteria for selection for an AAPT/PTRA Sponsored Workshop(s) Mini Grant includes:
The Section Contact can also be the host, but this is not necessary. The Section Contact will work with the PTRA leadership and the host to advertise the availability of the workshop(s), accept the teacher applications, send acceptance notes, and arrange for a site to host the workshop(s). This work is typically done via web site and e-mail. A PTRA will provide the instruction during the workshop.
The national AAPT/PTRA Program leadership and the PTRA workshop leader will work with the Section Contact to provide template documents for the announcement, appplication, acceptance letters, press release, etc. This is a new endeavor to stengthen the cooperative efforts among AAPT section and the PTRA Program. As such we welcome your comments and suggestions.
