Intellectual Merit: SciGirls is a national outreach program of DragonflyTV supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation's Research on Gender in Science and Engineering Program. SciGirls empowers PBS outreach professionals and science museum educators, in partnership with local youth organizations, educators and parents, to deliver hands-on science encouragement and career guidance to girls in their communities. To meet the dramatic changes in U.S. demographics and the need for more women scientists and engineers, this project will expand SciGirls programming into Latino communities across the nation. SciGirls en Español will provide Spanish-language print and video resources, leader training, and grants to existing Latina-serving organizations to help encourage a greater engagement in STEM. The project is a collaboration among Twin Cities Public Television, The Self Reliance Foundation of Washington, D.C., and KLCS TV/DT, a PBS member station licensed to the Los Angeles Unified School District. SciGirls stresses the most current research into what strategies most effectively engage girls in STEM activities: extended communication and collaboration; finding real-life contexts for science; promoting open-ended investigations; and placing value on diverse ways of knowing, viewing and describing the world. With a focus on inquiry, SciGirls resources can easily be used by after-school educators, regardless of their science backgrounds, to create successful STEM experiences for girls. Broader Impacts: SciGirls en Español materials will be delivered to after-school programs across the country as well as to the Los Angeles United School District's "Beyond the Bell" initiative, via the district's station, KLCS TV/DT. Project PIs will also distribute copies of the materials to other organizations (NSTA, ASTC, and PBS stations) and make the entire set of resources (streaming videos and Activity Guides) available on DragonflyTV's Web site at www.pbskids.org/dragonflytv. The results of the evaluation will be shared with the informal science education research community and reported at the National AfterSchool Association annual conference and the NSF Joint Annual Meeting.

智力优势：SciGirls是DragonflyTV的一个全国性外展计划，由国家科学基金会的科学和工程计划中的性别研究资助。SciGirls授权PBS外展专业人员和科学博物馆教育工作者与当地青年组织，教育工作者和家长合作，为社区中的女孩提供实用的科学鼓励和职业指导。为了满足美国人口结构的巨大变化以及对更多女性科学家和工程师的需求，该项目将把SciGirls项目扩展到全国各地的拉丁裔社区。SciGirls en Español将提供西班牙语印刷和视频资源，领导者培训，并向现有的拉丁美洲服务组织提供赠款，以帮助鼓励更多地参与STEM。该项目是双城公共电视台、华盛顿，华盛顿特区自力更生基金会、和KLCS电视/DT，公共广播公司的成员站授权给洛杉矶联合学区。SciGirls强调最新的研究，什么策略最有效地让女孩参与STEM活动：扩大沟通和合作;寻找科学的现实生活背景;促进开放式调查;并重视了解，观察和描述世界的各种方式。随着调查的重点，SciGirls资源可以很容易地被课后教育工作者使用，无论他们的科学背景如何，为女孩创造成功的STEM经验。更广泛的影响：SciGirls en Español的材料将通过该地区的KLCS电视台/DT提供给全国各地的课后项目以及洛杉矶联合学区的“超越钟声”倡议。项目PI还将向其他组织（NSTA、ASTC和PBS电台）分发材料的副本，并在DragonflyTV的网站www.pbskids.org/dragonflytv上提供整套资源（流媒体视频和活动指南）。评估结果将与非正式的科学教育研究界分享，并在全国课后协会年会和NSF联合年会上报告。
