The project members are developing and implementing a model of instruction and articulation that creates linkages for students from high school to community college to four-year university to career. The project provides student support which reinforces their sense of purpose in their chosen discipline and enhances their ability to excel in math and science and pursue technical careers in the areas of construction technology. This project addresses the problem of high school students' underpreparation in math, science, and technology and the need to upgrade these skills for students interested in the construction industries by informing high school teachers and counselors about the requirements and rewards of college study or careers in construction, developing capacity for teachers to infuse technology instruction across high school curricula, and providing summer workshops and work experiences for high school students. Pathways for students to pursue post secondary education or careers in construction are also being mapped out to assist students in becoming better trained in the use of technology in construction. New courses in construction technologies and the strategies to implement them are being developed so that community colleges nationwide may upgrade math, science, and technical instruction. The project is also serving a diverse group of high schools in rural and urban western Oregon and cutting across curricular bounds in those high schools to ensure that this project will be replicable in communities and schools nationwide.

项目成员正在开发和实施一种教学和衔接模式，建立从高中到社区大学再到四年制大学到职业生涯的联系。该项目为学生提供支持，增强他们在所选学科中的使命感，并增强他们在数学和科学方面的卓越能力，以及在建筑技术领域追求技术职业的能力。该项目旨在解决高中生在数学、科学和技术方面准备不足的问题，以及对建筑行业感兴趣的学生提升这些技能的必要性，方法是向高中教师和辅导员告知大学学习或建筑职业的要求和回报，发展教师在高中课程中灌输技术指导的能力，并为高中生提供暑期讲习班和工作经验。此外，亦正在规划学生接受中学后教育或从事建造业的途径，以协助学生更好地接受在建造业使用技术的训练。正在开发建筑技术的新课程和实施策略，以便全国的社区大学可以提升数学、科学和技术教学。该项目还服务于俄勒冈州西部农村和城市的不同高中群体，并跨越这些高中的课程界限，以确保该项目将在全国范围内的社区和学校复制。
