Advancing STEM Research Teaching (ASRT) in Tucson, Arizona
About this Event
The ASRT Program is a four-day professional development conference that helps high school teachers and science fair directors create meaningful STEM research opportunities for their students. Through free, in-person workshops funded by Regeneron and ZEISS, participants gain curriculum, activities, and ongoing support to grow science research programs of any size.
SARSEF is thrilled to host the ASRT program this summer as one of only eight locations selected to host the program in 2026. Workshops are led by Michael Blueglass, a science educator from Westchester County, NY, with 40 years of experience in high school science education and supporting research projects at the high school level.
