"Family Science: Expanding Community Support for Inquiry-based Science" is the University of Washington's innovative five-year plan for reaching youth and families in the Seattle school district. This program represents an enhancement of the NSF-funded Family Science program targeting grades K-5 and expansion of this successful program to include middle and high school students. The proposed activities, Science Explorations, Inquiry Science Conferences and Community Celebrations, are designed to help parents understand inquiry-based science instruction while heightening students' confidence in their ability to understand science processes. The hands-on activities also support and complement Seattle's Local Systemic Change project by enlisting teachers, parents and community members to champion science education outside of the formal school setting. The implementation strategy includes workshops to train Family Science Lead Teachers and Parent/Community Leaders to coordinate Family Science programs. Subsequent partnerships between teachers and community organizations are designed to establish regional clusters of community networks to support programmatic activities during and beyond the funding period. It is estimated that Family Science will result in the presentation of nearly 300 school and community-based events impacting 10,000 individuals.

“家庭科学：“扩大社区对探究式科学的支持”是华盛顿大学为西雅图学区的青年和家庭制定的创新五年计划。 该计划代表了NSF资助的家庭科学计划的增强，目标是K-5年级，并将这一成功的计划扩展到包括初中和高中学生。 建议的活动，科学探索，探究科学会议和社区庆祝活动，旨在帮助家长了解以探究为基础的科学教学，同时提高学生对自己理解科学过程的能力的信心。 实践活动还支持和补充了西雅图的地方系统性变化项目，招募教师，家长和社区成员在正规学校环境之外倡导科学教育。 实施战略包括举办讲习班，培训家庭科学带头教师和家长/社区领导人协调家庭科学方案。 教师和社区组织之间随后的伙伴关系旨在建立社区网络的区域集群，以支持供资期间和之后的方案活动。 据估计，家庭科学将导致近300个学校和社区为基础的活动影响10,000个人的介绍。
