SECME announces 2013 Master Teacher Mentors and Consultants

Posted by Comm. Dept. in General  |  Comments (47)

Congratulations to O'Rourke teacher, Kim Worrell, one
of fourteen outstanding educators named from across the country asked to lead SECME initiatives.

For over thirty years a major focus of SECME, Inc. (a national nonprofit formerly the Southeastern Consortium of Minorities in Engineering) has been teacher professional development focused on K-12 science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). SECME’s capstone event for the professional renewal and revitalization is the Annual Summer Institute, hosted each year by one of its 42 member engineering universities. This year the 37th Annual SECME Summer

Institute will be hosted by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, June 16-23, 2013. This intense eight-day residential STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) professional development opportunity, presented bymember university faculty, partner industry and government experts, and SECME Master Teachers, provides educatorswith curriculum activities aligned to National Standards, cutting-edge content knowledge, and a framework for implementing a SECME program.

Worrell will join the following thirteen educators as significant members of SECME’s cadre of teachers with a strong tradition of leadership in SECME’s National Office Education Program Division. Because of their noteworthy contributions over the years, this group has been asked to accept additional responsibilities by serving on the SECME National Advisory Council and as SECME Summer Institute Master Teacher Mentors or Consultants. The focus of the SECME Mentoring program is to enhance K-12 teaching and learning by leading Professional Learning Communities during the Summer Institute and then providing Institute participants with post-Institute support.
