GSE/DIF: SciGirls en la Familia

智力价值：本网站的家庭推广项目建立在本网站全国推广工作的基础上，该项目将获奖的公共广播公司儿童科学系列片《龙飞电视》中以女孩为重点的资源提供给课外项目负责人、非正式的科学教育工作者和公共广播电台的推广专业人员。SciGirls强调当前的研究，即哪些战略最有效地吸引女孩参与STEM活动：扩大交流和合作；为科学寻找现实生活背景；促进开放式调查；重视认识、观察和描述世界的各种方式。更广泛的影响：在过去三年的SciGirls节目中，100多名教育工作者和社区领袖接受了培训，覆盖了3至8年级的5,000多名女孩。对于本网站之前的传播努力，双城公共电视台与自力更生基金会(SRF)合作，SRF是拉美裔社区非正式科学教育的主要支持者之一。本西班牙女孩组织提供西班牙语印刷和视频资源、领导人培训，并向现有的拉丁裔服务组织提供赠款，以帮助鼓励更多地参与STEM。随着本西班牙女孩项目的开展，有人反复强调一个主题：家庭和父母指导在拉丁裔文化中的重要性。因此，这个项目是一个新的传播倡议：SciGirls en la Family。该项目将为社区教育工作者提供资源和最佳实践方面的培训，以便不仅让西班牙裔女孩参与STEM，还包括她们的家庭。本组织的材料将分发给受赠者(全国各地的课后计划)，以及SRF？S的多元化合作伙伴网络，包括社区科学研讨会、国家拉扎委员会和阿斯匹拉。材料还将分发给其他组织(NSTA、ASTC和PBS电视台)，并在DragonflyTV的网站www.pbskids.org/dragonflytv上提供。

Intellectual Merit: The SciGirls en la Familia outreach project builds on the SciGirls national diffusion effort that puts girl-focused resources from the award-winning PBS Kids science series DragonflyTV into the hands of afterschool program leaders, informal science educators, and outreach professionals at PBS stations. SciGirls stresses 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. Broader Impacts: In the past three years of SciGirls programming, over 100 educators and community leaders have been trained reaching over 5,000 girls in grades 3 through 8. For SciGirls en Español, a prior diffusion effort, Twin Cities Public TV partnered with the Self Reliance Foundation (SRF), one of the leading supporters of informal science education in Hispanic communities. SciGirls en Español provides Spanish-language print and video resources, leader training, and grants to existing Latina-serving organizations to help encourage a greater engagement in STEM. As the SciGirls en Español project developed, one theme was repeatedly emphasized: the importance of family and parental guidance in Latino culture. As a result, this project is a new diffusion initiative: SciGirls en la Familia. This project will provide community educators with resources and training in best practices to engage not only Hispanic girls in STEM, but their families as well.SciGirls en la Familia materials will be delivered to grantees (after-school programs across the country), as well as SRF?s diverse partner network, including Community Science Workshops, National Council of La Raza, and Aspira. Materials will also be distributed to other organizations (NSTA, ASTC, and PBS stations) and made available on DragonflyTV's Web site at www.pbskids.org/dragonflytv.
