9355558 Koopman The American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI) in 1990 initiated a program to enhance U.S. high school science education, establish new links between high schools and biomedical investigators, and attract more students into scientific careers. High school science teachers are provided a stipend to work in the laboratory of an ASCI sponsor for 1-2 summers, during which they receive instruction in state-of-the-art techniques in the context of hands-on participation in a research project. Continued interaction throughout the school year with ASCI sponsors, accomplished physician-scientists who are excited about their work, is a central feature of the program. In addition, teachers will attend workshops directed toward translating the summer research experience into effective classroom activities and to train teachers to become a training resource for their peers, especially minority teachers working in schools with primarily minority/disadvantaged/underrepresented students. Applications are judged upon the scientific merits of the proposal, the motivation, leadership skills and qualifications of the teacher and ASCI sponsor, support of the high school administration for the program, and the impact that the teacher's participation is anticipated to have upon science education at the local level. Follow-up reports are required from program participants, and an external evaluation component has been established for ongoing evaluation of the program. The ASCI funded the program itself in 1991 and is committed to providing ongoing support. In addition to seeking NSF funding, the ASCI has secured and continues to seek funding from industry.

9355558 Koopman 美国临床研究协会 (ASCI) 于 1990 年启动了一项计划，旨在加强美国高中科学教育，在高中和生物医学研究人员之间建立新的联系，并吸引更多学生进入科学职业。 高中科学教师可以获得津贴，可以在 ASCI 赞助商的实验室工作 1-2 个暑假，在此期间，他们在亲自参与研究项目的背景下接受最先进技术的指导。 在整个学年中，与 ASCI 赞助商、对自己的工作感到兴奋的成就卓著的医师科学家持续互动，是该项目的核心特点。 此外，教师将参加研讨会，旨在将暑期研究经验转化为有效的课堂活动，并培训教师成为同行的培训资源，特别是在主要为少数族裔/弱势/代表性不足学生的学校工作的少数族裔教师。 申请的评判标准包括提案的科学价值、教师和 ASCI 赞助商的动机、领导技能和资格、高中管理部门对该计划的支持，以及教师的参与预计对当地科学教育产生的影响。 项目参与者需要提供后续报告，并且已经建立了外部评估部分来对项目进行持续评估。 ASCI 于 1991 年资助了该计划，并致力于提供持续的支持。 除了寻求 NSF 资助外，ASCI 还获得并继续寻求业界资助。
