Project Inclusion

项目包容的总体目标是提供适当的材料和策略来处理学生的多样性。该项目的产品将是一系列资源材料和一个执行过程，以支持教师将学生的注意力集中在妇女和少数民族的化学贡献上。所有项目材料都与介绍/一般化学的典型主题有关。这些资源材料正在接受一组外部教员和一组来自夏季讲习班计划的教员参与者的审查，并通过一些感兴趣的教员进行广泛的实地测试。暑期工作坊为教师提供了一个学习如何准备和整合项目材料的机会。在化学会议的报告中，通过向综合邮件列表发布公告以及通过期刊文章来宣传“项目纳入”。该项目的初步工作支持这样一种信念，即使用项目包含材料和策略可以提高学生的兴趣，并在化学课上取得成功。评估主要侧重于通过使用CBAM（基于关注的采用模型）来衡量教师和学生的态度变化。这个项目的潜在影响是巨大的，因为它的受众是全国每一个低年级大学化学班。

The overall goal of Project Inclusion is to provide appropriate materials and strategies to deal with student diversity. The Project products will be a series of resource materials and an implementation process that supports faculty in focusing students' attention on the chemical contributions of women and minorities. All Project materials are connected to the typical topics presented in introductory/general chemistry. The resource materials are undergoing review by a set of external faculty members and a group of faculty participants from a summer workshop program, as well as through extensive field-testing by a number of interested faculty. Summer workshops provide faculty with an opportunity to learn how to prepare and integrate Project materials into their classes. Project Inclusion is being publicized in presentations at chemistry conferences, by announcements to a comprehensive mailing list and through journal articles. Preliminary work in the Project supports the belief that use of Project Inclusion materials and strategies results in greater student interest and success in their chemistry classes. Evaluation is primarily focused on measuring attitude changes in faculty and students through use of CBAM (Concerns Based Adoption Model). The potential impact of the Project is tremendous as its audience is every lower division college chemistry class in the nation.
