The primary purpose of this project is to establish a national dissemination network and disseminate the results of Project Kaleidoscope-Phase I, an NSF-supported effort to begin a major reform movement in science an mathematics education at the undergraduate level, with a focus on liberal arts institutions. The dissemination effort, to be coordinated by the Independent Colleges office, includes the following activities: A series of regional colloquia, symposia, and workshops, and two national PKAL colloquia; Presentations at regional and national meeting os disciplinary and educational associations; Implementation of a system of mentor/consultants available to assist institutions in their reform efforts; Publication of meeting proceedings and major position papers on critical issues in the reform movement and Evaluation of the impact of reform efforts in undergraduate science and mathematics education. Building the network and dissemination efforts will be strengthened significantly by utilizing an electronic network to be established on the Internet. The electronic network will be used for communications, conferencing, and file exchange.

该项目的主要目的是建立一个全国传播网络并传播万花筒项目第一阶段的成果，该项目是国家科学基金会支持的一项努力，旨在启动一项重大的科学和数学教育改革运动，重点放在文科院校。由独立学院办公室协调的宣传工作包括以下活动：一系列地区讨论会、专题讨论会和讲习班，以及两次全国性的PKAL专题讨论会；在地区和国家会议上发表关于学科和教育协会的报告；实施可协助各机构进行改革的导师/顾问制度；出版关于改革运动中关键问题的会议记录和重要立场文件，以及对本科科学和数学教育改革努力的影响进行评估。通过利用将在因特网上建立的电子网络，将大大加强网络建设和传播工作。电子网络将用于通信、会议和文件交换。
