The Franklin Institute and Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. are disseminating materials and resources developed for The National Science Partnership for Girl Scouts and Science Museums (NSP) under prior NSF funding. The dissemination of these materials and resources targets 1.8 million Brownie (ages 6-8) and Junior (ages 9-11) Girl Scouts nationwide. Intellectual Merit. The National Science Partnership, a pioneering collaboration, was designed to address the science learning and teaching needs of Girl Scout leaders, with the goal of encouraging girls' pursuit of science. NSP provided science activity kits, coupled with leader training, that emphasized the processes of science, as well as badge-appropriate science content in physics, chemistry, astronomy, meteorology, and environmental science. Longitudinal evaluation showed that NSP was successful in building leader capacity as teachers and learners of science and cultivated girls' positive attitudes and long-lasting interest in science. In 2001, NSP was recognized by the Department of Education as one of five projects nationally for promoting gender equity in science.The project team will continue its longstanding collaboration to dramatically expand dissemination of the four most popular and effective NSP kits. Leaders will have an expanded menu of training opportunities, including web-based resources, and all four kits will meet current badge requirements, as well as align closely with the National Science Educational Standards. Through the proposed dissemination, the team expects to engage a whole new generation of girls and leaders in science learning in the powerful informal all-girl environment offered through Girl Scouting. Broader Impacts. NSP has benefited girls and leaders nationwide since the early 1990s. More than 11,800 leaders and 138,000 girls benefited from the NSP kit program during its initial five years of federal support. By providing strong resources for leaders in Girl Scouts, NSP enhances the likelihood of quality informal science experiences for girls, provides opportunities for engagement and transformation of leaders into science teachers, learners, and advocates, and offers program models for the institutions implementing the program.

美国富兰克林研究所和女童子军正在传播为女童子军和科学博物馆国家科学伙伴关系开发的材料和资源，这些材料和资源是由国家科学基金会先前提供资金的。 这些材料和资源的传播对象是全国180万女童军（6-8岁）和少年女童军（9-11岁）。 智力优势。 国家科学伙伴关系是一项开创性的合作，旨在满足女童子军领导人的科学学习和教学需求，目的是鼓励女孩追求科学。 NSP提供科学活动包，加上领导者培训，强调科学的过程，以及物理学，化学，天文学，气象学和环境科学中适合徽章的科学内容。纵向评价表明，国家科学计划成功地培养了科学教师和学生的领导能力，培养了女孩对科学的积极态度和持久兴趣。 2001年，国家科学计划被教育部确认为全国促进科学领域两性平等的五个项目之一，项目小组将继续其长期合作，大力推广四个最受欢迎和最有效的国家科学计划工具包。 领导人将有一个扩展的培训机会菜单，包括基于网络的资源，所有四个套件将满足当前的徽章要求，以及与国家科学教育标准密切配合。 通过拟议的传播，该小组希望通过女童子军提供的强大的非正式全女孩环境中，让新一代的女孩和领导人参与科学学习。 更广泛的影响。 自1990年代初以来，国家战略计划使全国各地的女孩和领导人受益。在联邦支持的最初五年里，有11 800多名领导人和138 000名女孩从国家战略计划工具包方案中受益。通过为女童子军领导人提供强大的资源，NSP提高了女孩获得高质量非正式科学经验的可能性，为领导人参与和转变为科学教师，学习者和倡导者提供了机会，并为实施该计划的机构提供了计划模式。
