STEM通过真实的研究和培训（START）计划是一个新的计划，整合了学术，社会和专业经验，以外医学为主题，通过为高中学生和教师提供全年真实的机会和专业发展，为第一代和传统上代表性不足的学生建立进入大学的管道。为应对COVID-19疫情，START计划与当地Fayette County公立学校及社区合作伙伴合作，透过与社区合作伙伴Space Tango的虚拟实验室图尔斯参观、“与科学家见面”讨论及线上近同侪学生示范，向逾300名学生提供内容，旨在让STEM学科的实践变得平易近人。此外，START计划与Higher Orbits合作，为学生提供以太空为主题的家庭学习套件，以发展团队合作，沟通和STEM原则，同时与教师，专业人士和宇航员进行在线内容。最后，START计划已经将其培训平台转移到网上，包括接受大学阅读和学习协会（CRLA）的同伴教育者认证，以进行我们的同伴指导和教练培训。因此，START计划能够更好地满足STEM教育的这一关键需求，同时接触到社区中更多的学生，而不仅仅是面对面的互动。
The STEM Through Authentic Research and Training (START) Program is a new program integrating academic, social, and professional experiences, in the theme of exomedicine, to build a pipeline into college for first generation and traditionally underrepresented students by providing year-round authentic opportunities and professional development for high school students and teachers. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the START Program has worked with the local Fayette County public school and community partners to provide content to over 300 students through: virtual laboratory tours with community partner Space Tango, “meet a scientist” discussions, and online near-peer student demonstrations aimed at making the practice of STEM disciplines approachable. Furthermore, the START Program has partnered with Higher Orbits to provide at-home, space-themed learning kits for students to develop teamwork, communication, and STEM principles while engaging in online content with teachers, professionals, and astronauts. Finally, the START Program has moved its training platforms online, including receiving College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) Peer Educator accreditation for our near-peer mentoring and coaching training. As a result, the START Program is better positioned to address this critical need in STEM education, while reaching more students in the community than possible with face-to-face interactions alone.
