Kauai Community College will assess its STEM curriculum, infrastructure, and evaluation procedures and determine a course of action to strengthen STEM instruction through the integration of curricula and research. Central to this effort is a pre-technology project-centered learning community to help address barriers that prevent entry of native Hawaiians into STEM-based career pathways.Research activities will serve as foci for the enhancement of STEM curricula and infrastructure. This approach will engage students in research and strengthen institutional partnerships with private and public sector organizations offering enhanced internship opportunities. An assessment instrument to track project outcomes and the success of STEM graduates will also be developed.

考艾岛社区学院将评估其STEM课程，基础设施和评估程序，并确定通过课程和研究的整合加强STEM教学的行动方针。这项工作的核心是一个以项目为中心的前技术学习社区，以帮助解决阻碍夏威夷土著人进入STEM职业道路的障碍。研究活动将成为加强STEM课程和基础设施的重点。这种方法将使学生参与研究，并加强与私营和公共部门组织的机构伙伴关系，提供更多的实习机会。还将开发一个评估工具，以跟踪项目成果和STEM毕业生的成功。
