Puget Sound Center for Teaching, Learning, and Technology will replicate the Northwest Girls Collaborative Project in three regions (California, Indiana, and Massachusetts) in an effort to strengthen the capacity, impact, and sustainability of existing and evolving girl-serving science, technology, and engineering and mathematics (STEM) programs. Through collaboration among organizations, institutions, and businesses committed to expanding participation of women in STEM, the existing and evolving projects will have a much greater chance of maintaining interest and participation of girls in STEM within their regions.Through replication of the NW model, the project will accomplish the following objectives: 1. Connect existing and evolving projects, identify gaps and overlaps of services in support of STEM for girls. 2. Maximize access to shared resources within projects and with public and private sector organizations and institutions interested in expanding girls' participation in STEM. 3. Invest in long-range planning for addressing gaps and overlaps in service delivery and long-term sustainability. 4. Strengthen capacity of existing and evolving projects by sharing research and program models, outcomes and products. Leaders and experts in girl-serving STEM organizations will share their knowledge via conferences and forums, both in person and via teleconference and/or video conference, electronic communications via a listserv newsletter and a MatchMakers program to assist matching needs and resources. They will employ structured collaborative brainstorming and planning to develop action plans. Mini-grants will encourage leaders to test and develop new approaches and to incorporate assessment methods.The new Collaboratives will be formed with the Society of Women Engineers (for Massachusetts and New Hampshire), the Edward Teller Educational Center affiliated with the University of California, and Indiana's Energize Indiana state-wide initiative (which concentrates industry attention to workforce development).A National Champions Board comprised of individuals from all sectors (education, industry, government, national non-profit, and media) advises the Collaboratives on all aspects including fund raising for sustainability. Intellectual Merit. The NorthWest Collaborative model will be transported to three different new settings and evaluated in those new settings. All the materials developed for one region will be available and tested and refined in the new settings. Broader Impact. Typically small informal education programs are implemented and lose effectiveness or fade away. The model promises to build a rich regional network, supply significant information, social capital, and resources. It will strengthen the informal education infrastructure that delivers STEM education to students, build capital in the local leaders, attract and commit industry involvement and funding, gain visibility and support in communities, and ultimately bring more girls into STEM learning and careers.

普吉特海湾教学、学习和技术中心将在三个地区（加州、印第安纳州和马萨诸塞州）复制西北女孩合作项目，以加强现有和不断发展的为女孩服务的科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）项目的能力、影响和可持续性。通过致力于扩大妇女参与STEM的组织、机构和企业之间的合作，现有和正在发展的项目将有更大的机会保持其区域内女孩对STEM的兴趣和参与。通过复制NW模式，该项目将实现以下目标： 1. 连接现有和发展中的项目，找出支持女孩STEM服务的差距和重叠。2. 最大限度地利用项目内的共享资源，并与有意扩大女孩参与科学、技术、工程和数学的公共和私营部门组织和机构共享资源。3. 投资于长期规划，以解决服务提供和长期可持续性方面的差距和重叠。4. 通过分享研究和项目模型、成果和产品，加强现有和正在发展的项目的能力。为女孩服务的STEM组织的领导人和专家将通过会议和论坛分享他们的知识，无论是亲自还是通过电话会议和/或视频会议，通过邮件列表通讯和MatchMakers计划进行电子通信，以帮助匹配需求和资源。 他们将采用结构化的合作头脑风暴和规划来制定行动计划。 小额赠款将鼓励领导人测试和开发新的方法，并纳入评估方法。（适用于马萨诸塞州和新罕布什尔州）、加州大学附属爱德华·特勒教育中心、以及印第安纳州的“激励印第安纳州”全州计划（该委员会将行业的注意力集中在劳动力发展上）。（教育，工业，政府，国家非营利组织和媒体）就包括可持续发展资金筹集在内的各个方面为合作伙伴提供建议。智力优势。 西北合作模式将被转移到三个不同的新设置，并在这些新的设置进行评估。 为一个区域编制的所有材料都将在新的环境中提供、测试和完善。 更广泛的影响。 一般来说，小型非正规教育方案得到实施后，就会失去效力或逐渐消失。 该模式有望建立一个丰富的区域网络，提供重要的信息，社会资本和资源。 它将加强非正规教育基础设施，为学生提供STEM教育，在当地领导人中建立资本，吸引和承诺行业参与和资金，在社区中获得知名度和支持，并最终使更多的女孩进入STEM学习和职业。
