The University of California at Berkeley in conjunction with the Berkeley Unified School District will create Applied Design Engineering Project Teams (ADEPT). These teams will design and deploy a standards-based engineering curriculum for middle schools and high schools meant to integrate mathematics and science learning, inspire students and strengthen the classroom experience of current and future faculty in math, science, and engineering. ADEPT curriculum development teams will combine the best of inquiry- and activity-based teaching and learning with cutting edge university-based research methods and resources. Each team will be made up of local school teachers, university faculty, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates; each of whom will contribute unique perspectives and skills in the creation of discrete curriculum modules. These modules will form the core of the curriculum and serve as exemplary .hands-on . minds-on. model lessons that enrich the learning experience of the entire range of students. The overall goals of the program are to: Engage middle and high school students in doing mathematics and science through engineering projects that strengthen their understanding of core concepts in math and science; Engage and enrich learning for the diverse population of middle and high school students found in urban classrooms; Create and sustain a vibrant learning community of teachers, graduate students, undergraduate students and university faculty who work together to develop exemplary curriculum modules; Foster a college-going culture among middle school students, parents, and teachers that provides a supportive and attractive alternative to counter-academic pressures confronting students when they make the transition from middle school to high school. Intellectual Merits: ADEPT modules will be designed to serve the needs of the full range of students, including those who do not learn core math and science concepts with the current curriculum and teaching methods. These hands-on engineering design projects will tap into a greater range of learning modalities than current textbook and classroom practices. Second, ADEPT modules will serve the needs of students who have mastered the core math and science concepts and are challenged by the open-ended opportunities to integrate these math and science concepts, and apply their understanding to engineering projects that have implications for their lives and their community. Broader Implications: The modules to be developed will go beyond the traditional views of engineering to value the community and cultural context within which middle- and high school students learn. All results will be made available to other school districts and universities who may be interested in using these modules.This project is receiving partial support from the Directorate for Enginnering.

加州大学伯克利分校与伯克利联合学区将创建应用设计工程项目团队（ADEPT）。这些团队将为初中和高中设计和部署基于标准的工程课程，旨在整合数学和科学学习，激励学生并加强当前和未来数学，科学和工程教师的课堂体验。ADEPT课程开发团队将联合收割机结合最好的探究和活动为基础的教学与尖端的大学为基础的研究方法和资源。每个团队将由当地学校教师，大学教师，研究生和高级本科生组成;每个人都将在创建离散课程模块方面贡献独特的观点和技能。这些模块将构成课程的核心，并作为示范。头脑。模型课程，丰富整个学生的学习体验。该计划的总体目标是：通过加强他们对数学和科学核心概念的理解的工程项目，让初中和高中学生参与数学和科学;参与并丰富城市教室中不同人群的初中和高中学生的学习;创建和维持一个由教师、研究生、本科生和大学教师组成的充满活力的学习社区，他们共同努力开发示范课程模块;在中学生、家长和教师中培养一种大学文化，为学生从初中过渡到高中时所面临的反学术压力提供一种支持性和有吸引力的选择。智力优势：ADEPT模块将被设计为满足全方位学生的需求，包括那些不学习核心数学和科学概念与当前的课程和教学方法。这些动手工程设计项目将利用比目前的教科书和课堂实践更广泛的学习方式。其次，ADEPT模块将满足学生的需求，这些学生已经掌握了核心的数学和科学概念，并受到开放式机会的挑战，将这些数学和科学概念整合在一起，并将他们的理解应用于对他们的生活和社区有影响的工程项目。更广泛的影响：将要开发的模块将超越传统的工程观点，重视初中和高中学生学习的社区和文化背景。所有结果都将提供给可能有兴趣使用这些模块的其他学区和大学，该项目得到工程局的部分支持。
