PROPOSAL #: 0637027PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Carmen LatterellINSTITUTION: University of Minnesota DuluthTITLE: GK-12: Graduate Fellows in Science and Mathematics EducationThe Graduate Fellows in Science and Mathematics Education, a GK-12 project between the University of Minnesota Duluth and four K-12 schools, focuses on defining the needs and limitations for improving STEM teaching and on creating innovative instruction for students using inquiry-based learning processes in mathematics, biology and geology. Project activities include a summer workshop, a seminar series, as well as ongoing communication using ePortfolio and WebCT. The intellectual merit of this project for fellows include 1) learning inquiry-based pedagogy to teach STEM knowledge and skills, 2) an appreciation of the challenges, rewards and needs of K-12 education, 3) developing and sharing effective methods of scientific communication to a non-technical audience and 4) becoming effective and critically reflective teachers of STEM. K-12 teachers will 1) strengthen their STEM and technical knowledge 2) engage students in authentic science and math inquiry-based learning, 3) gain resources/equipment for authentic learning, 4) enhance their repertoire of teaching through mentoring the fellows, and 5) develop partnerships with the University faculty and graduate fellows. The K-12 students will 1) learn about scientific and mathematics inquiry, 2) gain proficiency, confidence and interest in science and mathematics, and 3) be aware of the career choices for scientists and mathematicians. This project includes efforts to broaden participation of underrepresented groups such as Native Americans. Participants of the project will disseminate information and experiences with colleagues locally, regionally and nationally. A strong working partnership will be developed between the University faculty, K-12 teachers, students and parents.

提案#：0637027 PRINCIPAL调查员：Carmen LatterellInstitution：明尼苏达大学DuluthTITLE：GK-12：科学和数学教育研究生研究员明尼苏达大学和四所K-12学校之间的GK-12项目科学和数学教育研究生侧重于确定改进STEM教学的需求和限制，并利用数学、生物和地质方面的探究式学习过程为学生创造创新教学。项目活动包括夏季讲习班、系列研讨会以及使用ePortfolio和WebCT进行的持续交流。该项目对研究人员的智力价值包括：1)学习以探究为基础的教学法，教授STEM知识和技能；2)认识到K-12教育的挑战、回报和需求；3)向非技术受众发展和分享有效的科学交流方法；4)成为STEM的有效和批判性反思教师。K-12教师将1)加强他们的STEM和技术知识，2)让学生参与真正的科学和数学探究性学习，3)获得真正学习的资源/设备，4)通过指导研究员来增强他们的教学能力，以及5)与大学教职员工和研究生研究员发展伙伴关系。K-12的学生将1)学习科学和数学探究，2)熟练掌握科学和数学，对科学和数学充满信心和兴趣，3)了解科学家和数学家的职业选择。该项目包括努力扩大美洲原住民等代表性不足群体的参与。该项目的参与者将与当地、区域和国家的同事一起传播信息和经验。将在大学教职员工、K-12教师、学生和家长之间建立强有力的工作伙伴关系。
