The WaterCAMPWS Collaboration for Learning Education and Research (WaterCLEAR) program is a year long collaborative project designed for high school science teachers. It is a partnership of teachers who will integrate and implement water purification curriculum modules aligned to Illinois Science Standards and customized to their own learning objectives. WaterCLEAR provides teachers with an opportunity to stay at the absolute cutting edge of scientific innovation while at the same time refining their classroom teaching strategies. Attending teachers can receive a stipend upon completion of each workshop or outing. The WaterCLEAR program includes two spring semester meetings, a four day session on the University of Illinois campus, and a follow-up meeting in the fall.
