GRADUATE TEACHING FELLOWS IN K-12 EDUCATIONABSTRACTPROPOSAL #: 0742554PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Karen Viskupic INSTITUTION: Boise State UniversityTITLE: Utilizing local resources and educational settings to stimulate K-12 learningBoise State University?s Graduate GK-12 Fellows will partner with three local learning centers to develop and deliver educational activities in biology and the geosciences. GK-12 project will use local and regional science issues to stimulate learning in the K-12 community. K-12 classes that visit the learning centers will use some of the developed activities, while other activities will be used in traditional classroom settings through outreach. The project will help K-12 students to increase their understanding of science topics, and how those topics relate to their lives, through the use of local and regional themes. Together, the partner learning centers will serve a total of over 40,000 K-12 students each year, and the project has the potential to affect a large percentage of Idaho students.Expected outcomes of the project include: 1) Funding many graduate students? educations, which will allow them to pursue diverse research goals in science fields; 2) The infusion of research-based science and its importance into the consciousness of local students; 3) Training several graduate students in communicating science to non-technical audiences; 4) Enhancement of K-12 students? understanding of science concepts, which may lead to increased interest in pursuing careers in these fields; 5) Development of educational activities that can be used by teachers and classes not directly participating in the project; and 6) Development of a sustainable collaborative partnership between Boise State University and the K-12 community.

GK-12项目将使用本地和区域科学问题来刺激K-12社区的学习。 访问学习中心的K-12课程将使用一些已发达的活动，而其他活动将通过宣传在传统的教室环境中使用。 该项目将通过使用本地和地区主题来帮助K-12学生提高对科学主题的理解，以及这些主题与他们的生活的关系。 合作伙伴学习中心每年将共同为40,000多名K-12学生提供服务，并且该项目有可能影响大部分的爱达荷州学生。项目的预期包括：1）为许多研究生提供资金？教育将使他们能够在科学领域实现各种研究目标； 2）注入基于研究的科学及其对当地学生意识的重要性； 3）培训几位研究生将科学传达给非技术观众； 4）增强K-12学生？理解科学概念，这可能会导致人们对从事这些领域的职业的兴趣增加； 5）开发教师和班级可以使用的教育活动； 6）建立博伊西州立大学与K-12社区之间的可持续合作伙伴关系。
