Framing Student Success: Increasing Math and Science Achievement through Construction Technology

项目成员正在制定和实施一种教学和衔接模式，为学生从高中到社区学院到四年制大学再到职业生涯建立联系。 该项目为学生提供支持，加强他们在所选学科中的目的感，提高他们在数学和科学方面的能力，并在建筑技术领域从事技术职业。 该项目旨在解决高中学生在数学、科学和技术方面准备不足的问题，以及需要通过向高中教师和辅导员介绍大学学习或建筑职业的要求和回报，培养教师在高中课程中融入技术教学的能力，并为高中生提供暑期工作坊和工作经验。 此外，当局亦正为学生制订修读专上教育或从事建造业的途径，以协助学生接受更佳的训练，掌握建造业的科技应用。 新的建筑技术课程和实施这些课程的战略正在制定中，以便全国的社区学院可以提高数学，科学和技术教学。 该项目还为俄勒冈州西部农村和城市的各类高中提供服务，并跨越这些高中的课程范围，以确保该项目在全国的社区和学校中推广。

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.
