Project Kaleidoscope (PKAL) is sponsoring a series of workshops that continues the current focus on programs that work, and incorporates a more intentional focus on institutions that work. Our intent is to build networks of individuals and institutions, regionally and nationally, that are committed to working together to transform science, mathematics, engineering, and technology programs in institutions of all kinds, in all parts of the country. Building on the similar prior activities, the project will host workshops during 1997 - 1998. Each workshop will involve 10 - 14 presenters who are recognized within their disciplinary and educational community as reflective practitioners in the field of educational reform. Teams of approximately three people, from 20 - 24 different institutions, will participate in each workshop; host sites for each of the workshops will be institutions that are demonstrably seeking to transform their undergraduate SME&T programs. Topics to be covered by the series of workshops include the wide range of issues that must be addressed by faculty and administrators in the process of achieving institutional and programmatic reform that succeeds over the long-term. These workshops fit into the larger goals of PKAL: to facilitate comprehensive reform at over 500 colleges and universities across the country, by equipping institutional teams for their leadership role; to provide leadership opportunities for the PKAL Faculty for the 21st Century network; and to encourage national action supportive of local efforts to enhance and improve undergraduate SME&T. Extensive activities have been planned to disseminate materials from the workshop (particularly through the World Wide Web) and to evaluate the impact of PKAL activities on participating campuses.

万花筒项目（PKAL）正在赞助一系列研讨会，继续关注目前行之有效的项目，并有意地将重点放在行之有效的机构上。我们的目的是建立区域性和全国性的个人和机构网络，致力于共同努力，在全国各地的各种机构中改变科学、数学、工程和技术项目。在以前类似活动的基础上，该项目将在1997 - 1998年期间举办讲习班。每个研讨会将有10 - 14位在其学科和教育界被公认为教育改革领域的反思实践者的演讲者。来自20 - 24个不同机构的大约三人小组将参加每个讲习班；每个研讨会的主办地点都将是那些明显正在寻求转变其本科中小企业和技术项目的机构。该系列研讨会将涵盖的主题包括教师和管理人员在实现长期成功的体制和方案改革过程中必须解决的广泛问题。这些研讨会符合PKAL的更大目标：通过装备院校团队发挥领导作用，促进全国500多所高校的全面改革；为21世纪网络的院系提供领导机会；鼓励国家采取行动支持地方努力加强和改善大学生中小企业教育。已计划开展广泛的活动，传播讲习班的材料（特别是通过万维网），并评价维和行动对参加的校园的影响。
