Langston's Integrated Network College Featuring The STEM Digital Village (LINC, Phase II)

朗斯顿综合网络学院(LINC)是一项为期五年的HBCU-UP实施项目，旨在创建一个21世纪的数字村庄。该项目的总体目标是1)增加进入大学、获得STEM学科本科和高级学位并选择STEM职业的未得到充分服务的学生数量；2)扩大兰斯顿大学STEM项目的参与者多样性。LINC项目旨在通过实施以下活动来实现这些目标：1.建立STEM数字村，通过传播信息、跟踪兰斯顿STEM学生和通过对话支持合作，支持招募和留住STEM学生；2.使用能力表现记录学习(CPR-L)，包括通过教学方法学习，学生创建自己使用平板电脑做问题的记录，迫使学生独处和专注，并产生学生对主题掌握情况的能力表现记录；3.实施夏季桥梁计划，针对新生，重点是化学、生物和微积分；4.实施针对本科生STEM专业的发展性实习和硕士导师、实验室助理和研究实习；5.实施在线辅导方案。STEM数字村是该项目的基石，它是一个在线社区，旨在通过创建一种工具，鼓励队列之间或队列与STEM毕业生之间的按需对话，从而支持留住工作。奥运村将通过利用学生的专业知识作为当前兰斯顿学生的导师，帮助跟踪学生毕业后的情况。数字村还将成为传播与该方案有关的信息和调查结果的渠道。

Langston's Integrated Network College (LINC) is a five year, HBCU-UP implementation project aimed at creating a 21st century Digital Village. The overall goals of the project are to 1) increase the number of underserved students who enter college, receive undergraduate and advanced degrees in STEM disciplines, and choose STEM careers and 2) expand the diversity of participants in the Langston University STEM program. The LINC project aims to realize the goals through the implementation of the following activities:1. Institution of a STEM Digital Village that will support recruitment and retention through the dissemination of information, tracking of Langston's STEM students, and supporting collaboration through dialog;2. Use of Competency Performance Recordings for Learning (CPR-L) which involves learning by teaching methods where students create recording of themselves doing problems utilizing tablet PCs, forcing students toward solitude and focus, and producing a Competence Performance recording of the students grasp of the subject matter;3. Implementation of a summer bridge program, aimed at incoming freshmen, with an emphasis on Chemistry, Biology and Calculus;4. Implementation of developmental internships and master tutors, lab assistants and research internships aimed at undergraduate STEM majors;5. Implementation of online tutorial program.A cornerstone of the project, the STEM Digital Village, is an online community designed to support retention by creating a vehicle that encourages on-demand dialog between cohorts, or between cohorts and STEM graduates, among other things. The Village will assist in tracking students post graduation through the use of their expertise as mentors for current Langston students. The Digital Village will also be a conduit for the dissemination of information and findings related to the program.
