IEEE Teacher In-Service Program TISP

IEEE Teacher In-Service Program TISP This page is for the exchange of information, ideas, stories, and news items for IEEE volunteers and pre-university educators involved in TISP.

TISP provides a forum for IEEE volunteers to learn how to provide professional development sessions to pre-university teachers in their local communities. Once trained, volunteers work closely with teachers to bring the application of engineering, science and technology concepts into their classroom using exciting, low-cost, hands-on engineering activities!

Did you know that IEEE Educational Activities publishes an online magazine intended to inspire students ages 14-18 to learn more about engineering, technology, and computing, and raise excitement about careers in these disciplines?

We most certainly do! The e-zine is titled IEEE Spark – check out the latest issue which focuses on animation at spark.ieee.org!
