Public Service Advertising Campaign

这项国家科学基金会的拨款旨在扩大NACME现有的信息项目，使其覆盖更多的初高中少数民族学生的教师、辅导员和家长，并最终为学生自己提供更多更好的信息。在这项资助下制作的材料传达了这样的信息：少数族裔学生可以在数学和科学领域找到有价值的、可实现的职业，可以提供经济援助，帮助学生为这些职业做准备，对有兴趣在大学阶段学习工程的学生有特定的学术先决条件，鼓励少数族裔学生学习工程和相关技术领域的项目越来越多。具体来说，这笔资金用于开发、制作和分发：“工程，你进入21世纪的钥匙”3万册小册子和配套海报，面向初中学生、家长和老师。《经济援助解读：少数族裔工程专业学生指南》3万本面向高中毕业生、教师、辅导员和家长的书籍。《工程学校学生指南》3万册，面向高中学生、教师、辅导员和家长。“MEPs/USA：大学预科和大学少数民族工程项目目录”5000个指导顾问、教师、项目主任和其他领域参与者的目录。

This National Science Foundation grant was designed to expand NACME's existing information program to reach more teachers, counselors and parents of minority students at the junior and senior high school levels and, ultimately, to provide more and better information to the students themselves. Materials produced under the grant to convey the message that minority students can find rewarding, attainable careers in mathematics and science-based fields, that financial aid is available to help students prepare for such careers, that there are specific academic prerequisites for students interested in studying engineering at the college-level, and that there is a growing network of programs to encourage the study of engineering and related technical fields among under represented minority students. Specifically, this funding was used to develop, produce and distribute: "Engineering, Your Key to the 21st Century" 30,000 brochures with companion posters targeting junior high school students, parents and teachers. "Financial Aid Unscrambled: A Guide for Minority Engineering Students" 30,000 books targeting high school seniors, teachers, guidance counselors and parents. "Students Guide to Engineering Schools" 30,000 books targeting high school students, teachers, guidance counselors and parents. "MEPs/USA: The Directory of Precollege and University Minority Engineering Programs" 5,000 directories for guidance counselors, teachers, program directors and other participants in the field.
