Call for Reviewers
GRANT REVIEWERS
NEEDED FOR SHORT,
The
The Junior Division of the New Jersey
Academy of Science (NJAS) sponsors a AAAS-funded Grant-In-Aid (GIA) Program whereby
students in grades 9-12 submit a 4 page research proposal seeking funds for their proposed
science or math experimental projects. Annually, NJAS awards grants up to $150 to the
highest ranking proposals to fund supplies and equipment for these student projects.
This call for proposal reviewers asks that
you agree to review up to five, 4 page research proposals. Proposals are sent out for
review at Thanksgiving 2005 and reviewer’s rankings are due back by Christmas 2005.
Reviewers who agree to evaluate proposals receive the student proposals as an email
attachment from me, along with the numeric scoring sheets and preset evaluation criteria.
Once the proposals are judged, all you the reviewer need to do is email me back your
scoring sheets.
If you feel you would like to participate
in this rewarding program or wish to know more, please email me at: president@njas.org When emailing your
agreement to serve as a reviewer, please include the following information:
your name, email address and phone number
