ASM Materials Camps℠ for Teachers
The NACE Foundation has partnered with the ASM Materials Education Foundation to fund and organize week-long summer camps for high school science, math and technology teachers. These camps are often organized on local college / university campuses and are entirely free for attending teachers. The camps provide teachers with innovative, exciting, and fun methods for (1) teaching materials science in the high school classroom and (2) exciting students about career fields in materials technologies and engineering, including corrosion control.
The curriculum of a Materials Camp includes classroom instruction as well as many hands-on lab experiments, including a four-hour corrosion component utilizing the Corrosion Toolkit (cKit) developed by the NACE Foundation. Other experiments that are part of the curriculum relate to solids, ceramics, glass, composites, polymers, and metals. All experiments are designed with the primary goal of educating students while demonstrating the appeal of a career in fields associated with expertise in materials technology, including the pipeline industry, manufacturing, corrosion control, and laboratory work.
Camps are held during the summer months to coincide with the availability of the greatest number of teachers.
