Sisters in Science in the Community

天普大学的“社区科学姐妹”（SISCOM）是一个以建构主义为基础的包容性青年/社区项目，针对代表性不足的城市6-10年级初高中女生及其家庭；它支持接纳残疾女孩。它让女孩和她们的父母在课后、周六和夏季参加由社区组织和天普大学共同主办的以实践为基础的探究性体育科学项目。女生还将参与由女科学家指导的以学生为中心的研究项目。关于智力价值，SISCOM是基于Temple之前关于让女孩和她们的父母参与STEM活动的方法的研究。将通过伙伴网络与国家正式和非正式教育工作者社区之间的信息共享，促进教育研究和实践的基础结构

Temple University's "Sisters in Science in the Community (SISCOM)" is a constructivist-based, inclusive youth/community project targeting underrepresented urban middle and high school girls in grades 6-10 and their families; it supports inclusion of girls with disabilities. It engages girls and their parents in hands-on, inquiry-based sports science in after-school, Saturday, and summer programs co-hosted by community-based organizations and Temple University. Girls will also be engaged in student-centered research projects guided by female scientists. With regard to intellectual merit, SISCOM is based on previous research done by Temple on methods for engaging girls and their parents in STEM activities. The infrastructure of research and practices in education will be facilitated through the sharing of information between the network of partners and the national community of formal and informal educators
