DRL-0833517PI: Joan AbdallahInstitution: American Association for the Advancement of ScienceTitle: GET SET Global Education for Tomorrow in Science, Engineering, and TechnologyThis project focuses research on understanding what it takes to get underrepresented students to succeed in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) as its central goal. It is implementing and testing an instructional model for 2,000 6-8th grade students in ten Washington, DC public, charter schools to increase student interest in and pursuit of careers in engineering and other STEM areas, with a focus on energy and renewable resources. Students may also apply for out-of-school learning activities, including engineering clubs, summer institutes, and career exploration. Thirty teachers and ten counselors are receiving professional development to implement the project in their schools. Research is focusing on the "dosage" and "duration" of the interventions by controlling these two variables. Students in the 6th grade at the start of the project are experiencing 3 years of participation, while the 8th graders have only one year. The activities completed by different cohorts of students also are being varied.

DRL-0833517 PI：Joan Abdallah机构：美国科学促进协会标题：GET SET未来科学，工程和技术的全球教育这个项目的重点是了解如何让代表性不足的学生在STEM（科学，技术，工程和数学）中取得成功，并将其作为其中心目标。它正在为华盛顿10所公立特许学校的2,000名6- 8年级学生实施和测试一种教学模式，以提高学生对工程和其他STEM领域的兴趣和职业追求，重点是能源和可再生资源。学生还可以申请校外学习活动，包括工程俱乐部，暑期学院和职业探索。30名教师和10名辅导员正在接受专业发展，以便在他们的学校实施该项目。研究的重点是通过控制干预的“剂量”和“持续时间”这两个变量。在项目开始时，六年级的学生正在经历3年的参与，而八年级的学生只有一年。不同年级学生完成的活动也各不相同。
