项目摘要
With the support of the National Science Foundation (NSF) through the Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP), Xavier University of Louisiana will implement a comprehensive program to Recruit and Retain qualified minority high school students through Enriched Educational Programs (RREEP). Studies have confirmed that, nationally, less than 10% of the African Americans receive their bachelors degrees in STEM disciplines. Compared to the 28% minority representation in the entire population less than 5% percent are in the science and technical work force. These small percentages can be attributed to a number of factors that include a lack of faculty mentoring, inadequate advising and, most of all, inadequacies in science and mathematics education in K-12 schools. Xavier proposes a solution to this problem with support from NSF by following targeted goals and objectives through RREEP. The goals of this proposal are to: i) increase the retention rate of minorities in the STEM disciplines and ii) increase the number of African American students at Xavier who major in chemistry, computer science, engineering, mathematics, or physics, and contribute towards increasing the number of African Americans entering to the work force in these disciplines. In support of these goals, Xavier has identified specific objectives. These objectives are to: i) increase the successful completion rate of STEM students in developmental mathematics courses from 50% to 75%; ii) increase the successful completion rate of STEM students in gate keeping courses from 60% to 75%; and iii) increase the overall enrollment in selected STEM disciplines by 60% over the next five years. Xavier University has a long tradition of success in science education (especially in the preparation of students for medical school) places it in a unique position to achieve these goals and to make a significant impact on the STEM workforce. This proposal outlines a comprehensive program that will assist the University in achieving the above-stated goals as it adapts and enhances the successful programs already in place. This project includes activities to: a) develop a new summer bridge program for under-prepared students b) restructure a current summer bridge program, c) collaborate with local middle and high schools through summer/Saturday workshops for science and mathematics teachers, and d) enhance/improve the pedagogy used in developmental mathematics and gate keeping courses in the STEM disciplines. Intellectual Merit: The improved instructional structure proposed will result in a higher retention rate and higher achievement levels of the students at Xavier University. This can serve as a model for other institutions.Broader impact: The proposed Saturday workshops for in-service teachers will i) increase the knowledge and skills of the math and science teachers and ii) improve the collaborations between New Orleans area schools and Xavier University. Furthermore, the proposed high school visitations will enhance the understanding of the career opportunities in STEM disciplines by high school students. Additionally, this project will result in an increase in the number of minorities participating in the work force in the US in the STEM disciplines.
在国家科学基金会(NSF)通过历史黑人学院和大学本科项目(HBCU-UP)的支持下,路易斯安那州泽维尔大学将实施一项综合计划,通过丰富的教育计划(RREEP)招募和留住合格的少数族裔高中生。 研究证实,在全国范围内,不到10%的非洲裔美国人获得STEM学科的学士学位。 与少数民族在总人口中所占的28%相比,在科学和技术工作队伍中所占的比例不到5%。 这些小百分比可以归因于许多因素,包括缺乏教师指导,咨询不足,最重要的是K-12学校的科学和数学教育不足。 Xavier在NSF的支持下提出了一个解决这个问题的方案,即通过RREEP实现有针对性的目标。 该提案的目标是:i)提高少数民族在STEM学科的留存率,ii)增加泽维尔大学主修化学、计算机科学、工程、数学或物理的非裔美国学生人数,并为增加非裔美国人进入这些学科工作的人数做出贡献。 为了支持这些目标,Xavier确定了具体目标。 这些目标是:i)将STEM学生在发展数学课程中的成功完成率从50%提高到75%; ii)将STEM学生在守门课程中的成功完成率从60%提高到75%; iii)在未来五年内将选定STEM学科的总体入学率提高60%。 泽维尔大学在科学教育方面有着悠久的成功传统(特别是在为医学院学生做准备方面),使其处于实现这些目标的独特地位,并对STEM劳动力产生重大影响。 该提案概述了一个全面的计划,将帮助大学实现上述目标,因为它适应和加强已经到位的成功方案。 该项目包括以下活动:a)为准备不足的学生制定一项新的夏桥计划; B)调整目前的夏桥计划; c)通过为科学和数学教师举办夏季/星期六讲习班,与当地初中和高中合作; d)加强/改进科学、技术、工程和数学学科发展数学和把关课程中使用的教学法。 智力优势:提出的改进教学结构将导致更高的留存率和更高的成绩水平的学生在泽维尔大学。 更广泛的影响:为在职教师提议的周六研讨会将i)增加数学和科学教师的知识和技能,ii)改善新奥尔良地区学校和泽维尔大学之间的合作。 此外,拟议的高中访问将提高高中学生对STEM学科就业机会的理解。 此外,该项目还将增加美国STEM学科中少数族裔的劳动力数量。
