Pittcon is a dynamic, transnational exposition and comprehensive technical conference showcasing the latest advances in research and scientific instrumentation.
Pittcon Science Week
Sponsored by Pittcon, Science Week offers outreach and support programs for science education in the city that hosts its annual convention.
Science Week offers interactive workshops designed for elementary, middle, and high school science teachers. Workshops are designed to help teachers implement fun experiments into their classrooms.
Science Week 2022 in Georgia
Science Week 2022 will feature interactive Teacher Workshops for elementary, middle, and high school science teachers. The three-day conference will take place at Oglethorpe University, June 7 - 9, 2022.
Some of the ways Science Week enhances science educators include:
Teacher Workshops
Teacher Workshops are designed to help teachers implement fun experiments into their classrooms. Participants receive instruction and, depending on the workshop, even supplies and materials to help them perform some of the educational experiments in their own classrooms.
Classroom Equipment Grants
Equipment grants are available for teachers who attend a Teacher Workshop. These grants enable teachers to purchase equipment demonstrated in the workshops or other science-related equipment of their choice from select companies. (Note: not available for Science Week 2022)
Student Workshops
Student Workshops are designed for primary students in grades 1-6. These hands-on workshops will lead participants through the exciting process of experimentation and discovery. (Note: not available for Science Week 2022)
Foldscope for Teachers
Foldscope provides a low cost and convenient way for teachers to give students a visual demonstration of the microscopic world. Slides can be displayed on mobile phones or projected for classrooms.
