GK12 Track II: Boston University Urban Fellows Project

该提案描述了一个Track 2 GK-12项目，该项目将把现有的两个GK-12项目（科学、技术和数学合作项目）和CPS（聚合物研究中心）的最佳方面结合到一个项目中，重点关注在城市学校系统工作的研究员。GK-12波士顿城市研究员项目将支持26名研究员，波士顿大学将支持65名研究员在波士顿公立学校、切尔西公立学校和昆西公立学区工作。波士顿大学为该项目提供财政支持，并致力于将现有的GK-12课程扩展到该机构的其他研究生。该项目还将为教师开设STEM教学课程。该项目包括一项全面评估，以确定该项目对研究员、教师和K-12学生的持久影响。

This proposal describes a Track 2 GK-12 project that will combine the best aspects of two existing GK-12 projects: Project STAMP (Science, Technology and Math Partnerships) and the CPS (Center for Polymer Studies) into one project focused on Fellows working in urban school systems. The GK-12 Boston Urban Fellows Project will support 26 Fellows and Boston University will support 65 Fellows to work in Boston Public Schools, Chelsea Public Schools and Quincy Public School districts. Boston University is providing financial support to this project and is also committed to broadening the existing GK-12 courses to other graduate students at the institution. The project will also create a STEM instructional course for teachers. The project includes a comprehensive evaluation to identify lasting effect of the project on Fellows, teachers and K-12 students.
