Graduate Teaching Fellows in K-12 (GK-12)AbstractProposal: # 0742544PI: Jeffrey KidderInstitution: University of Colorado-BoulderTitle: Graduate Teaching Fellows in Ethnically Diverse Classrooms: A Collaborative Model for Impacting Science and Learning in Boulder County, Colorado Public SchoolsNSF Supported STEM Disciplines : Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Environmental Science, Geology, Mathematics, PhysicsThe proposed project falls largely under the thematic heading of knowledge transfer and curriculum development and enrichment. The project will focus on effective delivery, integration, and extension of FOSS science kits targeted to elementary and middle school students. An ecology/computing science theme is integrated into the elementary FOSS modules; at the middle-school level, fellows will collaborate with classroom teachers to impact science teaching and learning in the classroom. Outside of the classroom fellows? engagement is throughinformal science clubs with a research project focus. It is expected that the fellows will serve two years in the project ? one year at the elementary level and one at middle school level, so that each teaching fellow will have experience at both levels.Intellectual merit of this project is in the value of a collaboration involving university science content specialists, inquiry-based science educators, and classroom teachers in changing the university and school culture for science education and for promoting increased student achievement.Anticipated outcomes of the proposed program include: enhanced teaching and communication skills of the fellows; development of students who are motivated and excited about science, mathematics, engineering and technology (SMET) with increased knowledge and understanding of SMET subjects; collaboration of teachers with graduate students in designing learning experiences for their students and incorporating new ideas, activities, and resources into their curricula; opportunities for teachers to learn hands-on, inquiry-based approaches to teaching; and the development of a model of school-college collaboration that has relevance and merit for national dissemination..The broader impacts of the proposed project will be to provide a model of school-college collaboration that has merit for replication throughout the school district and in school districts across the nation.

研究生教学研究员在K-12（GK-12）摘要提案：#0742544 PI：杰弗里·基德机构：科罗拉多大学博尔德分校标题：研究生教学研究员在种族多样的教室：一个合作模式，影响科学和学习博尔德县，科罗拉多公立学校NSF支持的干课程：生物学、化学、计算机科学、环境科学、地质学、数学、物理学拟议的项目福尔斯主要属于知识转移和课程发展和充实的主题。该项目将侧重于针对中小学生的自由和开放源码软件科学工具包的有效交付、整合和推广。生态学/计算科学主题被纳入初级自由和开放源码软件模块;在中学一级，研究员将与任课教师合作，影响课堂上的科学教学。 在教室外的同学们？参与是通过以研究项目为重点的非正式科学俱乐部。预计研究员将在项目中服务两年？一年在小学一级，一年在中学一级，使每个教学研究员将在这两个级别的经验。这个项目的智力价值是在合作的价值，涉及大学科学内容专家，探究为基础的科学教育工作者，在改变大学和学校的科学教育文化和促进学生成绩的提高方面，包括以下步骤：提高研究员的教学和沟通技能;培养对科学、数学、工程和技术充满动力和热情的学生，增加对科学、数学、工程和技术学科的知识和理解;教师与研究生合作，为学生设计学习经验，并将新的想法、活动和资源纳入课程;教师有机会学习实践、探究式教学方法;以及制定一个学校与学院合作的模式，该模式具有相关性，值得在全国推广。拟议项目的更广泛影响将是提供一种学校与学院合作的模式，值得在整个学区和全国学区复制。
