The major goals of this GK-12 project, Partnership for Research in Inquiry-based MSE Education (PRIME), are to enhance learning among middle school students, teachers, and GK-12 Fellows in math, science, and engineering (MSE); enhance the diversity of the MSE workforce; and develop a cadre of scientists and engineers who will enter the workforce ready, willing, and able to continuously improve the quality of K-12 education in the next century. PRIME is a partnership among five Seattle-area school districts; three NSF Local Systemic Initiatives; and fifteen academic departments in mathematics, science, and engineering, faculty in the College of Education and four diversity programs at the University of Washington in Seattle. PRIME's conceptual focus is inquiry-based MSE education in middle school settings with diverse student and teacher populations. Of 22,585 middle school students potentially affected by PRIME, nearly one-fifth (19%) are African American, Native American, or Hispanic. A summer learning sciences institute prepares PRIME Fellows to engage in partnerships with middle school teachers and students in MSE. This institute focuses on middle school learning and teaching, assessment practices, classroom instruction, and diversity. The institute prepares the Fellows to engage in sustained partnerships with classroom teachers. Fellows provide their disciplinary expertise to enhance classroom learning opportunities while also developing an increased understanding of pedagogy and diversity. The partnerships focus their efforts on the adaptation and localization of exemplary curricular materials. PRIME studies these sustained partnerships and disseminates the products of their efforts through annual regional showcases for teachers.

这个GK-12项目的主要目标，研究基于探究的MSE教育（PRIME）的合作伙伴关系，是为了加强中学生，教师和GK-12研究员在数学，科学和工程（MSE）的学习;增强MSE劳动力的多样性;培养一批科学家和工程师，他们将随时准备好，愿意，并能够在下一个世纪不断提高K-12教育质量。PRIME是五个西雅图地区学区之间的合作伙伴关系;三个NSF地方系统倡议;数学，科学和工程，教育学院教师和华盛顿大学西雅图的四个多样性项目的十五个学术部门。PRIME的概念重点是在具有不同学生和教师群体的中学环境中进行基于探究的MSE教育。在22，585名可能受到PRIME影响的中学生中，近五分之一（19%）是非洲裔美国人，美洲原住民或西班牙裔。一个暑期学习科学研究所准备总理研究员从事与中学教师和学生在MSE的伙伴关系。该研究所专注于中学学习和教学，评估实践，课堂教学和多样性。该研究所培养研究员与课堂教师建立持久的伙伴关系。研究员提供他们的学科专业知识，以提高课堂学习的机会，同时也发展教育学和多样性的理解增加。这些伙伴关系的工作重点是对示范教材进行改编和本地化。PRIME研究这些持续的伙伴关系，并通过每年的区域教师展示会传播他们的努力成果。
