Track 2, GK-12 MUSIC: Math Understanding through Science Integrated with Curriculum

MUSIC(通过科学与课程整合的数学理解)是一个学术提升计划，旨在建立和完善现有的GK-12计划，杜克大学普拉特工程学院与北卡罗来纳州的四所小学和中学合作。该项目的智力价值在于，通过比较四种实施探究式教学的培训/模式(对比接受过探究式教学培训的教师在使用和不使用NSF赞助的课程包的情况下，以及使用和不使用探究式培训助教人员的情况下)对探究式教学的学生成绩和教师能力的影响，对探究式教学知识库的贡献。该计划的更广泛影响包括通过TeachEngineering ering.com传播该课程，这是一个由NSF资助的可搜索的国家数字图书馆，由第一批GK-12获奖者组成的财团创建。此外，从北卡罗来纳州标准学习课程到国家标准的映射将使其他州的教师能够有效地使用这些教案。前期项目的结果：最初的GK-12工程教学奖学金计划将GK-12奖学金安置在4个县的7所小学的教师手中，并为1700名学生提供服务。研究员为教师设计和提供实践活动提供援助和专业知识，这些活动教授北卡罗来纳州标准课程中描述的科学和工程能力；并主办“科学之夜”、“探索日”和“赢得杜克大学的一天”竞赛。学校校长、伙伴学校校长、教师、教职员工和研究员共同为研究员设计讲习班，介绍如何提供适合年级的信息。小学教师主持了研讨会。伊巴拉博士和研究员们为杜克大学继续教育学分的教师提供每月一次的课程，内容是将技术融入课堂。学生的影响包括定期聘用工程教学研究员的课堂上对科学能力的信心增加，学生对体验科学作为乐趣的评分增加，以及课堂测试证明科学知识的保留情况有所改善。该项目得到了工程局的部分支持。标题：曲目2，GK-12音乐：通过科学与课程整合的数学理解机构：杜克大学PI/共同PI：Gary A.Ybarra，Martha Absher和Michael Gustafson合作学区：达勒姆县、奥兰治县和奥兰治特许学校每年研究员数量：6名研究生和12名本科生目标受众：K-8设置：市中心城市和乡村NSF支持的学科：数学、科学、工程和技术

MUSIC (Math Understanding through Science Integrated with Curriculum) is an academic enhancement program designed to build on and refine an existing GK-12 program partnering the Duke University Pratt School of Engineering with four N.C. elementary and middle schools. The intellectual merit of this project lies in its contribution to the inquiry-based instruction knowledge base through comparison of four types of training/models of implementing inquiry-based instruction (contrasting impact of teachers trained in inquiry-based instruction with and without NSF sponsored curriculum kits, and with and without inquiry-trained teaching fellows) on student achievement and teacher competence in inquiry-based instruction. The broader impact of this program includes dissemination of this curriculum through TeachEngineering.com, an NSF-funded searchable national digital library created by a consortium of first-cohort GK-12 recipients. In addition, mappings from the North Carolina Standard Course of Study to the National Standards will enable teachers in other states to use these lesson plans effectively. Results of Prior Project: The initial GK-12 Engineering Teaching Fellows Program placed GK-12 Fellows with teachers in 7 elementary schools in 4 counties and served 1,700 students. Fellows provided assistance and expertise for teachers designing and delivering hands-on activities that teach the science and engineering competencies described in the North Carolina Standard Course of Study; and hosted "Science Nights," Discovery Days," and "Win a Day at Duke" contests. School superintendents, partner school principals, teachers, faculty and the Fellows jointly designed workshops for the Fellows on the delivery of grade appropriate information. Elementary school teachers conducted the workshops. Dr. Ybarra and the Fellows offered teachers monthly sessions, for Duke University Continuing Educational credit, on integrating technology into classrooms. Student impact included an increased confidence in science abilities in classrooms regularly employing Engineering Teaching Fellows, increased student rating of experiencing science as fun, and improved retention of science knowledge as evidenced on classroom tests. This project is receiving partial support from the Directorate for Engineering.
