提案编号：0638718主要研究者：Wayne powell机构：纽约市系布鲁克林学院标题：布鲁克林学院GK-12城市As实验室（BC-CAL）布鲁克林学院GK-12城市As实验室（BC-CAL）项目旨在实现四个基本目标：1)更好地装备研究生成功的职业生涯作为科学家（学术，政府，商业）；2)提高参与“小学校”运动的城市高中教师以真实和社区为基础的方式教授科学的能力；3)加强9-12年级学生的科学知识学习；4)创建一个持久的教育合作伙伴合作网络，包括布鲁克林学院、布鲁克林主题高中、纽约市能源部和布鲁克林的非正式科学合作伙伴。这个项目的智力价值集中在回答“如何使用GIS软件来最好地满足中学STEM教育中教师和学生的需求？”社区合作伙伴如何才能最好地利用他们的资源，帮助以科学为主题的小型学校达到国家、州和地方的科学标准？”更广泛的影响包括但不限于扩大研究生的技能，提高K-12教师的研究技能，改善9-12 STEM教育。

PROPOSAL #: 0638718PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Wayne PowellINSTITUTION: CUNY Brooklyn CollegeTITLE: Brooklyn College GK-12 City As Lab (BC-CAL)The Brooklyn College GK-12 CITY AS LAB (BC-CAL) project aims to achieve four essential goals: 1) better equip graduate students for successful careers as scientists (academic, governmental, business); 2) improve the ability of urban high school teachers associated with the "Small School" movement to teach science in an authentic and community-based fashion; 3) enhance learning of science for students in grades 9-12; and 4) create an enduring, cooperative network of educational partners that includes Brooklyn College, thematic Brooklyn-based high schools, NYC DOE, and informal science partners of Brooklyn. The intellectual merit of this project focuses on answering the questions "How can GIS software be employed to best address the needs of teachers and students in secondary school STEM education? How can community partners best use their resources to aid science-themed small schools in meeting national, state and local science standards?" Broader impacts include but are not limited to expansion of graduate fellows' skills, improvement of research skills of K-12 teachers, and improvement of 9-12 STEM education.
