Graduate Teaching Fellows in K-12 Education (GK-12)AbstractProposal #: 0742475PI: Kathleen MarrsInstitution: Indiana University-Purdue UniversityTitle: The GK-12 Urban Educators Program at IUPUI: Teaching and Learning Science through ResearchNSF-supported STEM disciplines: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Math, Earth Sciences This project combines the research and teaching strengths of the IUPUI School of Science (SOS) and the Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM) with requests by local teachers for inquiry-based STEM laboratory experiences for children in grades 6-12. The selected urban partner schools have core competences in medical or environmental education. The fellows will collaborate with a secondary science or math teacher in ongoing professional development to develop grade-appropriate research activities. Innovative aspects include development of layered research projects that build in complexity through several grade levels, with a theme of relevance to student?s lives. Expected outcomes include enhanced research, teaching, leadership and communication skills of the fellows. Benefits to science teachers include opportunities for professional development, collaboration with GK-12 fellows and university faculty, and opportunities to engage their students in scientific research. Goals for middle and high school students include exposure to mentors and role models, opportunities to experience research, and exposure to science and math as exciting and desirable career options. By designing a collaborative, diverse partnership between STEM graduate researchers, faculty and STEM teachers, this project allows us to integrate research-based activities into the teaching and learning of secondary science and math, broaden the involvement and participation of a diverse inner-city student body in research, and strengthen existing ties between IUPUI and the local community.

K-12 教育研究生教学研究员 (GK-12)摘要提案编号：0742475PI：凯瑟琳·马尔斯机构：印第安纳大学-普渡大学标题：IUPUI 的 GK-12 城市教育者计划：通过研究教学和学习科学 NSF 支持的 STEM 学科：生物学、化学、物理、数学、地球科学 该项目结合了各大学的研究和教学优势 IUPUI 理学院 (SOS) 和印第安纳大学医学院 (IUSM) 应当地教师的要求，为 6-12 年级的儿童提供基于探究的 STEM 实验室体验。选定的城市合作学校在医学或环境教育方面具有核心能力。这些研究员将与中学科学或数学老师合作进行持续的专业发展，以开发适合年级的研究活动。创新方面包括分层研究项目的开发，这些项目在多个年级中构建复杂性，主题与学生的生活相关。预期成果包括提高研究员的研究、教学、领导和沟通技能。科学教师的好处包括专业发展的机会、与 GK-12 研究员和大学教师的合作以及让学生参与科学研究的机会。中学生和高中生的目标包括接触导师和榜样、体验研究的机会以及接触科学和数学作为令人兴奋和理想的职业选择。 通过在 STEM 研究生研究人员、教师和 STEM 教师之间设计一种协作、多元化的伙伴关系，该项目使我们能够将基于研究的活动融入中学科学和数学的教学中，扩大多元化的市中心学生团体对研究的参与和参与，并加强 IUPUI 与当地社区之间的现有联系。
