Local educators realise that more students will be able to apply science and math knowL edge to tips complex world if some courses are taught differently Through the Vermont Institute for Science Math and Technology CVISMT) and the Carl Perkins Tech Prep Grants a two day training -was held for educators from Hazen Union High School Lamoille Area Vocational Center Lamoille Union High School and Peoples Academy These sessions exposed educators to of Technology" hands-on learning labs related to physical science principles Carrol Stokes the Lamoille Union High School science department chairperson and teacher addressed procedures for using the curriculum and Mary Fries Waterman facilitated discussions about new course integration into the schools Principles of Technology (applied physics) reinforces the understanding of how physics works it relates to the real worlds of manufacturing and technology (American Demographics 794) With about 40 of the class time devoted to lab exercises students can experiment with pulleys pressure gauges water pumps hydrometers and other tools to manipulate and measure the powers of physics The curriculum is designed for students to understand and use physics through mechanical thermal electrical and fluid systems Each of the 14 units concentrates on the systems concepts ss it relates to force work rate resistance power and more Each unit takes several weeks to complete As technology changes the equipment will still be applicable to the principles For instance by making simple Electric Fundamentals Kits students cau ses how and why Law is important They can see how resistors and electric motors work Eventually some students will make scien- Teachers tasting a of lab about electric power at the Regional VISMTTech Prep

economically make lab equipment at the schools and how to use some science lab equipment If schools choose to buy ready-made labs through vendors the equipment is more expensive but less time consuming for the educators According to American Demographics magazine school spends about $28000 to buy lab equipment textbooks and videos for the two-year program" This training provided the

and Wolfe Schmok-el from Morrisville Beverly Ostler from Stowe and Roger and Pat Kowalsky from Johnson Irish Students to Visit has seen remarkable student progress in this coiuse The course design helps motivate students to learn and Carrol finds that he is using some of the labs in the Advanced Physics course to improve the motivation and material retention Jim Cole Jay Labare and Todd Bedard at Lamoille Area Vocational Center have also been team teaching introduction to Principles of Technology to their students When more vocational students are educated sooner about applying science skills then they will teach the advanced levels of Principles of Technology as it related to the VoTech field of study The of curriculum was developed by the Agency for Instructional Technology and the Center for Occupational Research and Development with financial support through 45 state educational agencies' Fifty states and Canada participate in the program and colleges accept the course for science lab credits This science and technology educational approach when used by educators and students in classrooms will better prepare students to work with science in the future!
