Planning Grant for the Enhancement of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics at Dine' College Project Summary Dine' College seeks a TCUP planning grant to evaluate its science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) curriculum with the objectives of: (a) improving as needed upon existing strengths in the health, biological and physical sciences together with mathematics; (b) expanding our capabilities in engineering and computer science, and (c) working with the College's Center for Dine' Teacher Education and articulating universities to develop an effective discipline-based STEM Education curriculum. That study will then be used as the basis of an action plan for developing a full implementation grant--to be submitted the following year--leading to an improved and expanded STEM program, ranging from a revised curriculum to improved classroom and laboratory infrastructure, added faculty, and an upgraded working relationship with Reservation employers and regional universities. The planning period will be for 12 months and will include four phases. * Phase 1 (August 15-November 15, 2003): An overall assessment of the present STEM program within the College infrastructure. It will include the aggregate impact on students of course offerings in STEM; of STEM faculty; and of such physical resources as laboratory and classroom space, laboratory equipment, and computer resources. * Phase II (November 16-February 14, 2004): A course by course evaluation of the STEM curriculum, including content, student preparedness and achievement, student demand, and teaching effectiveness. * Phase III (February 15-May 15, 2004): Development of an institutional plan leading to the preparation of a full implementation grant to facilitate growth and improvement. * Phase IV (May 16-August 15, 2004): A preliminary analysis of Phases I, II and III, leading to the development of a plan for evaluating progress during the implementation period. This planning process and the implementation to follow will have the intellectual merit of advancing STEM literacy within a significantly underserved population, Native American students. Their broader impacts will be derived from the development of a model academic STEM program that other Tribal Colleges will be able to use as a template in developing their own programs.

Dine' College科学、技术、工程和数学提升计划补助金项目摘要 Dine' College寻求TCUP规划补助金，以评估其科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）课程，目标是：（a）根据需要改进健康，生物和物理科学以及数学的现有优势;（B）扩大我们在工程和计算机科学方面的能力，以及（c）与学院的餐饮教师教育中心合作，并与大学合作，开发有效的基于学科的STEM教育课程。 该研究将被用作制定全面实施补助金的行动计划的基础-将于第二年提交-导致改进和扩大STEM计划，从修订课程到改善教室和实验室基础设施，增加教师，以及与保留地雇主和地区大学的升级工作关系。 规划期为12个月，将包括四个阶段。* 第一阶段（2003年8月15日至11月15日）：目前的STEM计划在大学基础设施的整体评估。它将包括STEM课程对学生的总体影响; STEM教师;以及实验室和教室空间，实验室设备和计算机资源等物理资源。* 第二阶段（2004年11月16日至2月14日）：对STEM课程进行逐门评估，包括内容、学生准备和成绩、学生需求和教学效果。* 第三阶段（2004年2月15日至5月15日）：制定一项体制计划，以便准备一笔全额执行赠款，以促进增长和改进。 * 第四阶段（2004年5月16日至8月15日）：对第一、第二和第三阶段进行初步分析，从而制定一项评估执行期间进展情况的计划。 这一规划过程和随后的实施将具有在服务严重不足的人口（美国土著学生）中推进STEM扫盲的智力价值。他们更广泛的影响将来自于一个模型学术STEM计划的发展，其他部落学院将能够作为模板在开发自己的程序。
