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

Langston的综合网络学院（LINC）是一个为期五年的HBCU-UP实施项目，旨在创建21世纪的数字村。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、选择STEM职业的服务不足学生的数量；2)扩大兰斯顿大学STEM项目参与者的多样性。LINC项目旨在通过实施以下活动来实现这些目标：1 .建立一个STEM数字村，通过信息传播、跟踪兰斯顿的STEM学生以及通过对话支持协作来支持招聘和保留；2 .使用学习能力表现记录（CPR-L），即通过教学的方式学习，学生利用平板电脑制作自己做问题的记录，迫使学生独处和集中注意力，并制作学生掌握主题的能力表现记录；3 .针对新生实施暑期衔接课程，重点是化学、生物和微积分；4 .针对STEM本科专业实施发展性实习和硕士生导师、实验室助理、研究实习；实施在线辅导计划。该项目的基石是STEM数字村，这是一个在线社区，旨在通过创建一种工具来鼓励群组之间或群组与STEM毕业生之间的按需对话，以及其他方式来支持保留。该村将协助跟踪学生毕业后，通过使用他们的专业知识，作为目前朗斯顿学生的导师。数字村还将成为传播与该计划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.
