Project VISTA (VIsual/Spatial Thinking Activities) is a curriculum development/research project designed to produce a bank of enrichment/enhancement science-oriented VST learning activities for grades K-8. University science educators, scientists, cognitive psychologists and educational technologists will collaborate with 36 exemplary Teacher Associates to develop and refine Project VISTA activities over a phased three-year period. The project will produce the following outcomes: 1) a baseline of assessed VST abilities for children in grades K- 8; 2) a battery of new VST assessment instruments; 3) a large collection of innovative VST science learning activities, including hands-on experiences, interactive videotape-based experiences, computer-based experiences, and inquiring demonstrations. These enrichment materials will be made available nationally to build upon and supplement all existing K-8 science programs.

VISTA 项目（视觉/空间思维活动）是一个课程开发/研究项目，旨在为 K-8 年级提供丰富/增强科学导向的 VST 学习活动。 大学科学教育工作者、科学家、认知心理学家和教育技术专家将与 36 名模范教师同事合作，在三年内分阶段开发和完善 VISTA 项目活动。 该项目将产生以下成果： 1) 评估 K-8 年级儿童 VST 能力的基线； 2) 一套新的VST评估工具； 3）大量创新的VST科学学习活动，包括动手体验、互动录像体验、电脑体验、探究演示等。 这些丰富材料将在全国范围内提供，以建立和补充所有现有的 K-8 科学项目。
