The Nation's two-year colleges (2YCs) educate a substantial and rapidly growing number of undergraduate students, including a significant number of students in STEM fields. Furthermore, the racial, ethnic, and geographic diversity of students served by 2YCs make these institutions key entry points to STEM fields for students who have been historically underrepresented. While 2YCs serve large numbers of STEM students, the number of NSF Course, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement (CCLI) proposals from and awards to these institutions remains disproportionately low.This project is developing and implementing a grant writing workshop and mentoring program for STEM faculty from 2YCs. Project components are designed to address the barriers to participation in CCLI faced by 2YC faculty and, as such, to address the disproportionately small number of CCLI awards made to these institutions. The overall goals of the project are to broaden awareness of the CCLI program as a resource for 2YCs and to increase the number of CCLI awards to these institutions. A specific focus of the project is on faculty from rural 2YCs that have not had previous NSF funding. By enhancing participation of target faculty in the CCLI program, the project is directly impacting 2YC faculty and students through improved curricula, pedagogy, and instrumentation. Furthermore, by broadening the CCLI community to include institutions not previously represented, the project is seeking to further facilitate collaboration between 2YCs and the broader undergraduate STEM community.

国家的两年制学院（2YCs）教育了大量且快速增长的本科生，包括大量STEM领域的学生。 此外，由2YCs服务的学生的种族，民族和地理多样性使这些机构成为STEM领域的关键切入点，为历史上代表性不足的学生提供服务。 虽然2YC为大量STEM学生提供服务，但这些机构的NSF课程，课程和实验室改进（CCLI）提案和奖励的数量仍然不成比例地低。该项目正在为来自2YC的STEM教师开发和实施资助写作研讨会和指导计划。 项目组成部分旨在解决2YC教师参与CCLI所面临的障碍，并因此解决这些机构获得的CCLI奖项数量不成比例地少的问题。 该项目的总体目标是扩大人们对CCLI方案的认识，将其作为两个青年中心的一种资源，并增加向这些机构颁发的CCLI奖的数量。 该项目的一个具体重点是来自农村2YCs的教师，他们以前没有NSF的资助。 通过加强目标教师在CCLI计划的参与，该项目是直接影响2YC教师和学生通过改进课程，教学法和仪器。 此外，通过扩大CCLI社区，包括以前没有代表的机构，该项目正在寻求进一步促进2YCs和更广泛的本科STEM社区之间的合作。
