2000ASTC Teacher of the Year Award
Barbara Romack, a teacher from the Kaneland Elementary
School, has been selected as the Fermilab Lederman Science Center
ASTC (Association of Science and Technology Centers) Teacher of
the Year. We honored Barbara for her involvement in several Fermilab
programs. Barbara first became acquainted with Fermilab programs
when she attended the Beauty and Charm teacher workshop. Based
on her excellent teaching abilities, Fermilb staff invited her
to become one of the developers and instructors for the Quarks
to Quasars program. Barbara is currently a member of the redevelopment
team revising the Beauty and Charm Teachers Guide. She will be
a co-instructor this summer for the newly designed workshop based
on the redeveloped guide merging the Beauty and Charm and Quarks
to Quasars programs. Barbara also participates in Fermilab programs
by teaching her students the curriculum unit, From Beneath the
Ashes, and has written for the Fermilab Education Office newsletter,
sciencelines. We are fortunate to have Barbara among our family
of teachers. Barbara was honored at the Wonders of Science Show
held at Fermilab on April 30 to celebrate National Science and
Technology Week.
