Teacher Renewal for Urban Science Teaching (TRUST) The TRUST program, developed by Eleanor Miele, and Wayne Powell, assistant professor of geology; in collaboration with the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) and Lehman College, received its second year of funding from the National Science Foundation. The "Teacher Renewal for Urban Science Teaching" program is a four-year professional development project that joins the resources of the American Museum of Natural History with the teacher education programs at Brooklyn and Lehman Colleges (CUNY). The program is offered to science education students seeking certification in earth science or certified teachers seeking dual certification in earth science and includes courses, summer institutes on campus or in the field, lecture series, study groups, museum resources, and stipends.
