New, GK-12 Vibes and Waves in Action: A Cross-Disciplinary Network for GK-12 EducationThis project connects researchers from the Colleges of Engineering, Education and Arts & Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Lowell to high-school teachers and students in school districts of Lowell and Lawrence, MA. The project theme, Vibes and Waves in Action, is focused on the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) of sound and electromagnetic vibrations and waves and their interaction with the environment. It anchors the research topics of GK-12 fellows and provides a context for relating core high school Physics and Mathematics curriculum to the research. The project goals are to: (i) connect graduate fellows in interdisciplinary research programs through activities that elicit common learning experiences while delivering science education in urban high schools; (ii) provide leadership training that emphasize mentorship, social impacts and diversity education; (iii) engage visionary teachers to help develop synergy between targeted high school curriculum content, Massachusetts state curriculum frameworks, and the fellows? research projects; and (iv) provide high school students experience in use of high technology equipment and cyber enabled platforms. An industry mentor network will be developed as a resource to the graduate fellows and the high school community. Cyber-infrastructure will be utilized to maintain a dynamic online presence, afford virtual collaboration, and to connect University compute servers, databases and lab instruments to high school classrooms for web based experiments. The program activities will be integrated into Creating Waves: a graduate course available for training all graduate students in STEM programs. This project will enhance STEM teaching and learning in school districts with high level of underrepresented students in STEM disciplines and create sustainable programs linking local school districts, colleges and regional industry together to improve the scientific and technical literacy of Massachusetts?s workforce.

新的，GK-12共鸣和波在行动：GK-12教育的跨学科网络这个项目将马萨诸塞州洛厄尔大学工程学院，教育学院和艺术科学学院的研究人员与洛厄尔和劳伦斯学区的高中教师和学生联系起来。 该项目的主题是Vibes and Waves in Action，重点关注声音和电磁振动和波的科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）及其与环境的相互作用。它锚定GK-12研究员的研究课题，并提供相关的核心高中物理和数学课程的研究背景。该项目的目标是：（i）在城市高中开展科学教育的同时，通过开展能激发共同学习经验的活动，将研究生研究员与跨学科研究项目联系起来;（ii）提供强调导师制、社会影响和多样性教育的领导力培训;（iii）让有远见的教师参与进来，帮助发展目标高中课程内容、马萨诸塞州课程框架和研究员之间的协同作用？研究计划;及（iv）为中学生提供使用高科技设备及数码平台的经验。将开发一个行业导师网络，作为研究生研究员和高中社区的资源。 网络基础设施将用于保持动态的在线存在，提供虚拟协作，并将大学计算服务器，数据库和实验室仪器连接到高中教室进行基于网络的实验。该计划的活动将被整合到创造波：研究生课程可用于培训所有研究生在干程序。该项目将加强STEM学科学生人数不足的学区的STEM教学和学习，并创建可持续的项目，将当地学区，学院和区域工业联系在一起，以提高马萨诸塞州的科学和技术素养。的劳动力。
