Bobby Jeanpierre, an assistant professor in the College of Education, Department of Teaching and Learning Principles teaches undergraduate science methods, and graduate level courses integrating mathematics and science education. The PI.s teaching and researching interests are intricately link to the overall goal of this CAREER AWARD, which is to significantly impact science teaching in diverse (50% or more students on free and reduce lunch) school settings. The PI embeds inquiry practices in all of the courses she teaches.The PI's current research projects are embedded in inquiry teaching and learning. The research foci are: 1) Lockheed Martin Mathematics and Science Program (LMA) 2) .Transition to Mathematics and Science Teaching (T-MAST), 3) stream video production, and 4) virtual field trip evaluation project. The PI conducts research on the classroom experiences and practices of in service (LMA) teachers and novice alternatively certified (T-MAST) teachers. The stream video project is the development and research into .best practices. in science teaching for students with learning disabilities. The PI works along side an Exceptional Education Specialist to develop the content for the streaming videos. The PI provides formative and summative evaluations for the development of a virtual field trip project. Taken collectively, these varied research projects are all interwoven with one common theme, the use of science reform and inquiry practices in teaching and learning in diverse school settings.Through this CAREER proposal, the PI seeks to extend the teaching and researching components to include a Historically Black College University. Hence, the PI intends to combine past international collaboration and national research experiences and current research interests to advance the understanding of inquiry in diverse settings. The PI brings these research interests and experiences together to define a focus for her central career goal, which is to significantly contribute to the effectiveness of science teaching and learning in diverse school settings.Intellectual Merit: .Inquiry Teaching and Learning: Connecting Research and Practice. Seeks to contribute to our knowledge and understanding of inquiry and science reform practices implemented in K-8 diverse schools. To accomplish this goal several questions will be answered:1) What are teachers. beliefs about inquiry-based instruction in diverse school settings? 2) How do teachers implement inquiry-based instruction? And 3) Do teachers use a variety of reform science-based classroom instructional practices in diverse settings? Embedded in these research questions is a closer look at teachers. goals, purposes, practices and why they choose to implement inquiry in diverse school contexts.Broader Impact: This project examines inquiry and reform science practices as implemented in diverse settings. Hence, an important focus is the examination of inquiry in diverse schools and collaboration across and between schools and universities. Therefore, a strong collaboration with a .Historically Black College University will be established. The expected products of this proposal include: 1) the development of video of teachers. inquiry classroom instructional practices in diverse schools, which will have a Web-based streaming component, 2) a cadre of doctoral students of diverse cultures and interests who gain the knowledge and skills to conduct research in diverse contexts, and 3) publications in international, national, and state journals. The learning that results from this project has the potential to increase our understanding of effective inquiry practices as implemented in a variety of diverse school settings.

Bobby Jeanpierre是教育学院教学和学习原则系的助理教授，教授本科科学方法和融合数学和科学教育的研究生课程。PI的教学和研究兴趣与该职业奖的总体目标密切相关，该目标是在不同的学校环境中显著影响科学教学（50%或更多的学生免费并减少午餐）。PI在她教授的所有课程中都嵌入了探究实践。PI目前的研究项目都嵌入了探究教学和学习。研究重点是：1）洛克希德·马丁公司数学和科学项目（LMA）2）过渡到数学和科学教学（T-MAST），3）流视频制作，4）虚拟实地考察评估项目。PI对在职（LMA）教师和新手替代认证（T-MAST）教师的课堂经验和实践进行研究。流视频项目是对最佳实践的开发和研究。为有学习障碍的学生提供科学教学。PI与一名特殊教育专家沿着工作，为流媒体视频开发内容。PI为虚拟实地考察项目的开发提供形成性和总结性评价。总的来说，这些不同的研究项目都与一个共同的主题交织在一起，即在不同的学校环境中使用科学改革和探究实践。通过这个职业生涯提案，PI寻求将教学和研究部分扩展到包括历史上的黑人学院大学。因此，PI打算结合联合收割机过去的国际合作和国家的研究经验和当前的研究兴趣，以促进在不同的设置查询的理解。PI将这些研究兴趣和经验结合在一起，为她的中心职业目标定义了一个焦点，即为不同学校环境中的科学教学和学习的有效性做出重大贡献。智力优势：探究式教学：连接研究和实践。旨在促进我们的知识和调查和科学改革实践的理解在K-8不同的学校实施。为了实现这一目标，需要回答几个问题：1）什么是教师。在不同的学校环境中进行探究式教学的信念？2)教师如何实施探究式教学？3）教师是否在不同的环境中使用各种基于科学的改革课堂教学实践？在这些研究问题中嵌入的是对教师的更仔细的观察。目标、目的、实践以及为什么他们选择在不同的学校环境中实施探究。更广泛的影响：本项目考察了在不同环境中实施的探究和改革科学实践。因此，一个重要的重点是在不同的学校和跨学校和大学之间的合作调查的检查。因此，将与一所历史悠久的黑人学院大学建立强有力的合作。本建议的预期成果包括：1）教师视频的开发。在不同的学校，这将有一个基于网络的流组件，2）不同的文化和兴趣的博士生谁获得的知识和技能，在不同的背景下进行研究，和3）在国际，国家和国家期刊出版物的骨干探究课堂教学实践。从这个项目的学习结果有可能增加我们对有效的调查实践的理解，在各种不同的学校环境中实施。
