  Strategic Alliances: Equipment Construction
By constructing their own equipment from inexpensive parts, teachers acquire useful teaching tools and a better understanding of the concepts involved in experimenting and in the development of science.
Further, the cost of demonstration equipment purchased through an educational supply house is often so high that teachers cannot afford to buy much, and certain items are simply too expensive, so being able to construct their own equipment saves money.
A partial list of the equipment that was built in recent workshop sessions includes standing-wave generators, pulse cannons, laser image generators, trebuchets, hovercraft, pressure cannons, center-of-mass demonstrators, mass sets, sundials, solar observatories, air tracks, pinhole cameras, solar cookers, circuit testers, hydroponics gardens, and motors.

Science classes in middle school often are held in 50-minute periods, making it difficult to explore science concepts through hands-on investigations students can pursue in depth.
A science club located primarily at the college presents a number of logistical pr oblems, including the fact that the equipment and space are already heavily used during the school year.
Unless special equipment is required or the school is within walking distance from the college, the requirement for regular visits to the college should be minimized.

 I believe teachers are the most significant factor in science education
Schools should have a "science lead teacher" whose responsibility is to facilitate training and science teaching within his or her school.
Science lead teachers who are trained extensively in the curriculum to be able to provide on site problem solving and act as a liaison with the science department.
Middle school programs may not be providing as much hands-on science but in the interest of "covering" the curriculum educators are losing the spark that keeps students involved in science.
