PI Name: Krishna Nayak Institution Name: University of Southern California Proposal Title: BE-LA: Body Engineering Los Angeles Proposal ID: 1045595This project will establish a new GK-12 program at USC that will develop graduate fellows majoring in engineering and related disciplines into well-rounded STEM leaders of tomorrow, while introducing cutting-edge body engineering research into urban Los Angeles middle school science classrooms. Graduate fellows will be provided with training and practice in education, communication, leadership, collaboration, and cultural sensitivity that enhances their doctoral training. Each graduate fellow will be paired with a middle school science teacher, and will serve as an in-class science resource throughout the school year. Fellows will develop and deliver original lesson plans incorporating their doctoral research and the research of their faculty advisors. Topics will include: non-invasive sensing and imaging, speech articulation, hand articulation, neuromuscular control, vision and recognition, cardiovascular mechanics, nutrition and metabolism, biological and bio-compatible materials, and human-machine interaction. The intellectual merit of this project includes 1) the research theme of body engineering, which is a strength of USC, and provides an engaging vehicle for demonstrating scientific and engineering principles and introducing university research into K-12 classrooms; and 2) the development and use of powerful pedagogical structures that will help graduate fellows communicate their research to middle school students. The broader significance of this project includes 1) development of a cadre of graduate fellows that possess the communication, leadership, and collaboration skills, and cultural sensitivity required to become STEM leaders; and 2) development of skills and interest in students at a critical stage for STEM learning.

PI姓名：机构名称：南加州大学提案标题：BE-LA：车身工程洛杉矶提案编号：1045595该项目将在南加州大学建立一个新的GK-12项目，将工程及相关学科的研究生培养成明天全面的STEM领导者，同时将尖端的车身工程研究引入城市洛杉矶中学的科学课堂。研究生研究员将提供教育，沟通，领导，协作和文化敏感性，提高他们的博士培训的培训和实践。每个研究生研究员将与一名中学科学教师配对，并将在整个学年作为课堂科学资源。 研究员将开发和提供原始的课程计划，将他们的博士研究和他们的教师顾问的研究。 主题将包括：非侵入式传感和成像、语音清晰度、手部清晰度、神经肌肉控制、视觉和识别、心血管力学、营养和新陈代谢、生物和生物相容性材料以及人机交互。该项目的智力价值包括：1）身体工程的研究主题，这是南加州大学的优势，并提供了一个引人入胜的工具，用于展示科学和工程原理，并将大学研究引入K-12教室;和2）开发和使用强大的教学结构，这将有助于研究生研究员将他们的研究传达给中学生。该项目的更广泛的意义包括：1）培养一批具有沟通，领导和协作技能的研究生研究员，以及成为STEM领导者所需的文化敏感性; 2）在STEM学习的关键阶段培养学生的技能和兴趣。
