GRADUATE TEACHING FELLOWS IN K-12 EDUCATION ABSTRACTPROPOSAL #: 0638774PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Judith L. BronsteinINSTITUTION: University of ArizonaTITLE: New, GK-12: BioME: Biodiversity from Molecules to EcosystemsThe GK-12 project from the University of Arizona will create synergistic opportunities for graduate fellows in life sciences departments and programs (such as ecology, neurobiology, and plant sciences) to engage K-12 students and teachers in the excitement of how science directly relates to them and the natural world around them ("Bio" and "ME") through a variety of university resources (such as the tree of life digital library of biodiversity). Graduate fellows will receive appropriate training in K-12 education and in teaching science through inquiry through a graduate seminar course. Fellows will also participate in a summer institute with their cooperating teachers to develop and strengthen relations. The project will recruit 10 fellows and up to 18 teachers per year. Research advisors of the graduate fellows and other collaborating faculty members will be actively involved in the project. The advisory board will also include an external evaluator to provide additional guidance on the formative and summative evaluation components. The intellectual merit includes providing opportunities to participating teachers to collaborate with graduate fellows to integrate aspects of the field experience to the Galapagos Islands into classroom curriculum and activities. The broader impacts include a plan to recruit graduate fellows from underrepresented groups and a commitment to sustain the project activities after the end of the grant for a period up to five years.

K-12 教育研究生教学人员摘要提案编号：0638774主要研究员：Judith L. Bronstein机构：亚利桑那大学标题：新，GK-12：BioME：从分子到生态系统的生物多样性亚利桑那大学的 GK-12 项目将为研究生创造生活中的协同机会科学部门和项目（例如生态学、 神经生物学和植物科学），让 K-12 学生和教师通过各种大学资源（例如生物多样性的生命之树数字图书馆），了解科学如何与他们以及他们周围的自然世界（“Bio”和“ME”）直接相关。研究生将通过研究生研讨会课程接受 K-12 教育和科学教学方面的适当培训。研究员还将与合作老师一起参加暑期学院，以发展和加强关系。该项目每年将招募 10 名研究员和最多 18 名教师。研究生的研究顾问和其他合作教师将积极参与该项目。顾问委员会还将包括一名外部评估员，为形成性和总结性评估部分提供额外指导。智力优势包括为参与教师提供与研究生合作的机会，将加拉帕戈斯群岛的实地经验融入课堂课程和活动中。更广泛的影响包括从代表性不足的群体中招募研究生的计划，以及在赠款结束后维持项目活动长达五年的承诺。
