SRI International (SRI), Girls Incorporated of Alameda County (GIAC), and TERC are collaborating to create and implement Girls InnovaTE3: Girls Innovating with Technology as Entrepreneurial Environmental Engineers. InnovaTE3, a Strategies project in NSF's ITEST program, is an out-of-school youth-centered curriculum for 8th through 11th grade girls. Within this context, InnovaTE3 will investigate the strategy of integrating innovation practices with interest-driven science learning for girls, evaluating the potential of the strategy to accomplish five goals: (1) developing and applying girls understanding of core concepts in Earth systems science content to an engineering design challenge, (2) developing girls interest and confidence in pursuing additional STEM content knowledge, (3) increasing girls? fluency in the innovation process and preparedness for the engineering workforce, (4) enhancing girls knowledge of a variety of STEM careers and interest in pursuing a specific STEM career, and (5) building staff capacity in after-school sites to engage girls in integrating innovation with science content.

SRI国际公司（SRI）、阿拉米达县女童公司（GIAC）和TERC正在合作创建和实施女童创新3：女童作为创业环境工程师利用技术进行创新。InnovaTE3是美国国家科学基金会ITEST项目中的一个战略项目，是一个面向8至11年级女生的校外青少年课程。在此背景下，InnovaTE3将研究将创新实践与女孩兴趣驱动的科学学习相结合的策略，评估该策略实现五个目标的潜力：(1)培养女孩对地球系统科学内容核心概念的理解，并将其应用于工程设计挑战；(2)培养女孩对学习其他STEM内容知识的兴趣和信心；(3)增加女孩的兴趣和信心。(4)提高女孩对各种STEM职业的知识和追求特定STEM职业的兴趣，以及(5)在课后场所建立员工能力，使女孩参与将创新与科学内容结合起来。
