Project Kaleidoscope Phase IV: Establishing National Forums and Networks Working Toward Building and Sustaining Strong Undergraduate SME&T Communities

跨学科（99）在2001/2002学年，亚太理工学院将赞助两个暑期研习班（每个研习班16个）和若干其他研习班，以提高本科生教师的技能、理解和能力，从而加强学生对中小企业的学习。这些PKAL活动的设计是为了模拟基于发现的，研究丰富的协作学习环境，以吸引学生并使他们能够在SME T学科中取得成功。受益于与本科中小企业T教育的一些最佳实践的实践经验，与会者将离开一个议程，立即采取行动，在他们的家庭校园，并与一个计划，以保持连接到他们的研讨会同行/主持人，区域和国家的同事和PKAL支持继续改革的努力。PKAL的有关努力，包括扩大网络存在、印刷出版物、咨询服务、21世纪世纪学院和评价PKAL参与对参与个人和机构的影响，将支持这些讲习班和研究所。

Interdisciplinary (99) In 2001/2002, PKAL will sponsor two summer institutes (16 workshops at each) and a select number of other workshops to enhance the skills, understandings and capacities of undergraduate faculty seeking to strengthen SME&T learning of their students. Planned and facilitated by leading national agents of change, the design of these PKAL activities is to model the discovery-based, research-rich, collaborative learning environment that works to attract students to and enable them to succeed in SME&T disciplines. Benefiting from a hands-on experience with some of the best practices in undergraduate SME&T education, participants will leave with an agenda for immediate action on their home campuses and with a plan to keep connected to their workshop peers/facilitators, regional and national colleagues and to PKAL for support in continuing reform efforts. Related PKAL efforts, including an expanded web presence, print publications, a consulting service, the Faculty for the 21st Century and the evaluation of the impact of PKAL involvement on participating individuals and institutions, will support these workshops and institutes.
