Attention 5th, 6th, and 8th grade physical science teachers! Are you looking for an enriching professional development opportunity? The Jefferson Science Activities for Teachers (JSAT) program is now accepting registrations for our upcoming session. This free program is designed to empower educators with innovative, hands-on science activities and lesson plans that can be directly implemented in the classroom. Participants will receive all necessary materials, 48 professional development points, and up to $100 in support. If you know a colleague who would benefit from this, encourage them to join you in registering. Don’t miss out on this chance to enhance your teaching toolkit—register today! https://lnkd.in/e_7bHXGD
About us
The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, located in Newport News, Virginia, is operated by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC for the Department of Energy’s Office of Science. The primary mission of the lab is to explore the fundamental nature of confined states of quarks and gluons, including the nucleons that comprise the mass of the visible universe. Jefferson Lab is also a world-leader in the development of the superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) technology utilized for the lab's Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF). This technology is the basis for an increasing array of applications at Jefferson Lab, other DOE labs, and in the international scientific community. The DOE recently announced the selection of Jefferson Lab as the lead for its new High Performance Data Facility Hub. The HPDF will be a $300-500 million computing and data infrastructure resource that will provide transformational capabilities for data analysis, networking and storage for the nation’s research enterprise. It will provide researchers with tools, methods and technologies to maximize the scientific value of data. Jefferson Lab has more than 700 full-time employees and an international scientific user community of more than 1,300 researchers whose work has resulted in scientific data from 175 experiments to date. Research at Jefferson Lab also contributes to thesis research material for about one-third of all U.S. Ph.D.s awarded annually in Nuclear Physics. The Lab's outstanding science education programs for K-12 students, undergraduates and teachers build critical knowledge and skills in the physical sciences that are needed to solve many of the nation's future challenges.
