The Collaborative Adolescent Autism Teacher Training Project, funded by a $792,000 federal grant, is a new program that will help put more qualified teachers into Georgia schools.
Nicknamed STEM Dawgs for their focus on science, technology, engineering and math, students taking EDUC 2460L are getting hands-on teaching experience in Clarke County's Hilsman Middle School and Jackson County's Benton Elementary School.
An associate professor in the department of elementary and social studies education has been awarded one of three Richard B. Russell Undergraduate Teaching Awards, which recognize excellence in undergraduate instruction by UGA faculty members in their early academic careers.
