"Community Science Workshops: Beginning a National Movement" is an extension of a successful, NSF-funded project that created a network of community science centers in California. The San Francisco State University will now take this successful venture to a national level by working with the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and Quality Education for Minorities (QEM) to establish a new Community Science Workshop (CSW) 8-10 in underserved communities over the next four years. Once sites are selected, CSW directors participate in an intensive two-week training program. This is followed by visits by site mentors, and ongoing support through the WWW and other media, which contributes to the establishment and eventual sustainability of the centers. Each site partners with larger, established museums and science centers locally to gain much needed assistance with exhibits and education programs. Community Science Workshops contain permanent exhibit space, a workshop area for student projects and classroom/storage space. They serve a variety of audiences through after school, family, school and summer science programs. Potential locations include Arizona, Florida, Louisiana, Michigan, Montana, Nebraska, New York, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and the District of Columbia.

“社区科学工作坊：“开始一个全国运动”是一个成功的，国家科学基金会资助的项目，在加州创建了一个社区科学中心网络的延伸。 旧金山弗朗西斯科州立大学现在将通过与美国科学促进协会（AAAS）和少数民族优质教育（QEM）合作，在未来四年内在服务不足的社区建立一个新的社区科学研讨会（CSW）8-10，将这一成功的冒险带到国家一级。 一旦选定地点，妇女地位委员会主任就参加为期两周的强化培训方案。 随后，现场指导人员进行访问，并通过万维网和其他媒体提供持续支持，这有助于中心的建立和最终的可持续性。 每个站点都与当地规模较大的知名博物馆和科学中心合作，以获得展览和教育计划方面急需的援助。 社区科学研讨会包含永久展览空间，学生项目和教室/存储空间的研讨会区域。 他们通过课后、家庭、学校和暑期科学课程为各种观众服务。 潜在的地点包括亚利桑那州、佛罗里达州、路易斯安那州、密歇根州、蒙大拿州、内布拉斯加州、纽约、田纳西州、得克萨斯州、华盛顿和哥伦比亚特区。
