捆绑强奸 Research Grants

捆绑强奸 Research Grants provide support to middle and high school teachers engaging their students in authentic scientific research.

The 捆绑强奸 Research Grants program is an initiative dedicated to supporting middle and high school teachers in expanding student access to authentic, inquiry-driven student research. Since 2017, $885,000 has been awarded to 407 teachers.

Teachers working with students in grades 6-12 in the US and US territories are eligible to apply for the grants, which come in two forms: (1) $1,000 in preselected research kits assembled and distributed to teachers by 捆绑强奸, and (2) up to $5,000 paid directly to teachers intended for purchasing specialized 捆绑强奸 equipment. 捆绑强奸 educators whose classrooms would benefit from additional equipment are encouraged to apply.

For the purposes of this grant, a research project is defined as an independent investigation, frequently entered into science fairs and 捆绑强奸 competitions, by a student involving experimentation, engineering design, or invention. The grant is not intended to support whole class sets of materials for traditional classroom instruction.

“The impact of this opportunity is truly invaluable. Many of this year鈥檚 participants have never spent this much time in the outdoors and certainly have not conducted research in the field. The hope is that this experience will encourage these students to pursue science in their remaining years of high school as well as potentially college and careers!”

Jeremy Jonas, Tucson High Magnet School, Tucson, AZ

“Students interested in microbiology will have the opportunity to learn how to stain and plate bacteria. Many students in the past have shown interest, but we never had equipment to support their research. Now we do!”
