To make STEM education available to the Yup.ik residents of the Y-K Delta, we propose to do the following to establish an academic program that effectively trains Alaskan Natives for STEM careers and bridges these students to the main campuses in Alaska: - A suite of proven models will be utilized. These models include (1) the Treisman model for effective methods of teaching mathematics, (2) the ANSEP model for recruitment,retention and matriculation, (3) the ESP (Emerging Scholars Program) model for retention and guidance, and (4) the TRIO model for recruitment and intensive course delivery. - The models will be modified and combined to most effectively serve the Yup.ik students in the Y-K Delta. For instance, elements of the Treisman model and the ANSEP model will be directed at recruiting and training non-traditional and under-prepared students as well as Yup.ik students with strong academic records. This program will broaden the scope of recruitment and retention beyond what has previously been done in other programs. - An integrated program of new course offerings in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and information technology will be developed at KuC. This suite of courses will give students options in the programs they enter at KuC, will enable students to receive two years of STEM education at KuC before matriculating to the four-year campuses at Fairbanks and Anchorage, and will allow them to locally receive professional certifications and associate degrees with emphasis in STEM areas. - using modified forms of the TRIO/Talent Search and the ANSEP models, both non-traditional and high school students will be recruited. Summer intensive camps will be offered to involve students in science, technology and mathematics. One-month intensive courses in mathematics, science and computer technology will be offered in order to give prospective college students stronger backgrounds in these areas before enrolling in college. Students will also participate in TALPA, where they design and build their own computer. The purpose of these summer intensives is to create interest in and excitement about STEM careers. - The summer intensives are followed by distance-delivered videoconference courses to high school students to keep them involved in the program and to continue their STEM training. A number of distance-delivered courses in ITS will also be used for this purpose. - In conjunction with the summer intensives and recruitment activities, the ESP and ANSEP faculty will engage in a proactive advising and guidance effort to involve the students in college activities, build cohort groups, a strong sense of community among the students, and improved student self image. The advising center and STEM faculty will likewise maintain contact with high school students. - Upon enrolling in KuC, students continue to receive advising, guidance and rigorous STEM training, and they continue to work within their cohort groups. Bridging will be accomplished when they matriculate to the four-year campuses.

为了向 Y-K 三角洲的 Yup.ik 居民提供 STEM 教育，我们建议采取以下措施建立一个学术计划，有效培训阿拉斯加当地人的 STEM 职业，并将这些学生与阿拉斯加的主要校园联系起来： - 将使用一套经过验证的模型。这些模型包括（1）用于有效数学教学方法的 Treisman 模型，（2）用于招募、保留和入学的 ANSEP 模型，（3）用于保留和指导的 ESP（新兴学者计划）模型，以及（4）用于招募和强化课程交付的 TRIO 模型。 - 这些模型将被修改和组合，以最有效地为 Y-K 三角洲的 Yup.ik 学生提供服务。例如，Treisman 模型和 ANSEP 模型的要素将针对招募和培训非传统和准备不足的学生以及具有良好学术记录的 Yup.ik 学生。该计划将扩大招聘和保留的范围，超越以前其他计划的范围。 - KuC 将开发数学、物理、化学、生物和信息技术新课程的综合项目。这套课程将为学生提供在 KuC 就读的课程的选择，使学生能够在进入费尔班克斯和安克雷奇的四年制校园之前在 KuC 接受两年的 STEM 教育，并使他们能够在当地获得以 STEM 领域为重点的专业认证和副学士学位。 - 使用 TRIO/人才搜索和 ANSEP 模型的修改形式，将招募非传统学生和高中生。将举办夏令营，让学生参与科学、技术和数学的学习。将提供为期一个月的数学、科学和计算机技术强化课程，以便未来的大学生在入学前在这些领域拥有更强大的背景。学生还将参加 TALPA，设计和建造自己的计算机。这些夏季强化课程的目的是激发人们对 STEM 职业的兴趣和兴奋。 - 夏季强化课程之后，为高中生提供远程视频会议课程，让他们参与该计划并继续进行 STEM 培训。 ITS 中的许多远程课程也将用于此目的。 - 结合夏季强化班和招生活动，ESP 和 ANSEP 教师将积极主动地提供建议和指导，让学生参与大学活动，建立同龄群体，增强学生的社区意识，并改善学生的自我形象。咨询中心和 STEM 教师同样将与高中生保持联系。 - 注册 KuC 后，学生将继续接受建议、指导和严格的 STEM 培训，并继续在自己的班级中工作。当他们进入四年制校园时，衔接就会完成。
