POWER SHIFT: A Proposal to Augment the Performance of Girls in SMET StudiesIn keeping with the mission to educate children and families, encouragecreativity, and challenge all learners in new and innovative ways, the Maine DiscoveryMuseum plans out-of-school-time programs that will increase competence in science andmathematics and promote technological fluency for middle school students. With thepassage of a landmark initiative by the 119th Maine State Legislature that equips all 7thand 8th grade students with laptop computers, MDM plans programs that will expand theuse of laptop computers beyond the school day, encourage parent involvement, andconvey fresh ways of learning and teaching math and science. With a history ofproviding exhibits and educational programs that are based on recognized learningtheories and that accommodate a wide-range of learning styles, we have an excellentopportunity to implement project-based activities that encourage creative problemsolving, social interaction, and group communication. We believe these programingredients, along with staff development workshops that focus on gender equity issues,will foster improved achievement and greater participation by females in SMETprofessions.

权力转变：提高女孩在 SMET 研究中表现的提案 为了履行教育儿童和家庭、鼓励创造力并以新颖和创新的方式挑战所有学习者的使命，缅因州探索博物馆计划开展课外活动，以提高中学生的科学和数学能力，并提高中学生的技术熟练程度。随着第 119 届缅因州立法机构通过一项为所有 7 年级和 8 年级学生配备笔记本电脑的具有里程碑意义的举措，MDM 计划开展一些计划，将笔记本电脑的使用范围扩大到教学日之外，鼓励家长参与，并传达学习和教授数学和科学的新方法。凭借提供基于公认学习理论并适应多种学习方式的展览和教育计划的历史，我们有绝佳的机会来实施基于项目的活动，鼓励创造性地解决问题、社交互动和小组沟通。我们相信，这些计划内容以及关注性别平等问题的员工发展研讨会将促进女性在 SMET 职业中取得更高的成就并更多地参与其中。
