In response to the need of scientists and educators for assistance in developing courses and programs to teach responsible scientific conduct, the National Research Council will convene a meeting of approximately 30 scientific conduct instructors and curriculum developers, ethicists, researchers, and administrators, across the fields of biology, chemistry, physics, medicine, social sciences, and engineering. The meeting will be a strategy session to consider what kinds of information educators need as they design their programs on scientific conduct, and how that information can best be put together in a way that provides them with meaningful guidance. To achieve that objective, the workshop participants will identify the needs of prospective educators involved in programs and courses on scientific conduct, and the kinds of information that will be most useful to them as they design their programs; examine a range of materials (courses, methods, textbooks) being used currently to teach scientific conduct, and discuss strategies for evaluating them; compile a list of candidate elements that might be included in a guide to assist educators in developing their programs, and discuss strategies for relating these to an instructor's choice of curricular materials or approaches; discuss options for designing an effective guide for educators. Participants will consider how such a tool can be designed to have the most impact.

为了响应科学家和教育工作者在开发教授负责任的科学行为的课程和计划方面的援助需求，国家研究委员会将召集大约30名科学行为教师和课程开发者、伦理学家、研究人员和管理人员参加会议，涉及生物、化学、物理、医学、社会科学和工程学等领域。这次会议将是一次战略会议，目的是考虑教育工作者在设计科学行为计划时需要哪些信息，以及如何最好地将这些信息组合在一起，为他们提供有意义的指导。为了实现这一目标，研讨会参与者将确定参与科学行为方案和课程的潜在教育工作者的需求，以及在设计方案时对他们最有用的信息类型；审查目前用于教授科学行为的一系列材料(课程、方法、教科书)，并讨论评估它们的策略；编制一份候选要素清单，以帮助教育工作者制定其方案，并讨论将这些要素与教师选择的课程材料或方法相关联的策略；讨论为教育工作者设计有效指南的选项。与会者将考虑如何设计这样一个工具以产生最大的影响。
