LIST STEM for ALL
Video Showcase
The University of Alabama-Developing Leaders in Science Teaching (LIST) Program, funded through the National Science Foundation, recruits Biology, Chemistry, and Physics BS graduates to become certified science teachers.
The LIST Scholarship covers up to $17,100/Year for graduate students to complete a fast track one year Teacher Certification MA Program in General Science, Biology, Chemistry, or Physics Education. The secondary science certification Master’s degree certifies the teaching of science in grades 6-12 in Alabama, other states, & overseas.
As a graduate of the LIST MA program you will teach in your certification field in a high needs school system and receive a $10,600 salary supplement each year for four years above your regular salary.
During this required four years as a LIST inservice science teacher you will actively participate in a LIST supported school PLC, register for 6 tuition-free credit hours of additional (EdS degree), graduate coursework and take part in an extensive induction program to support your classroom science teaching moving from novice science teacher to science teacher leader.

ASTA 2021 Hands-on Activities
Hands-on activity lessons face-to-face or virtually implementing science and engineering practices through the standards. The focus is on how to develop learning activities in daily lessons while effectively monitoring student progress using formative assessment. Activities address topics in biology, chemistry, geology, and physics.
UA LIST fellows and scholars develop, plan, and demonstrate teacher tested online tools for remote instruction to support science learning in virtual science classrooms and laboratories. Activities and virtual tools range from ACOS concepts in biology, chemistry, geology, and physics.
