教育者公平(EE) STEM学院旨在通过为社区大学教师和中学教师提供专业成长机会,提高技术教育STEM课程和项目中女性和代表性不足的学生的招聘和学业成功。全国公平教育合作联盟基金会(NAPEEF)与巴尔的摩县社区学院、巴尔的摩县公立学校和两个区域性的ATE中心一起,创建了EE-STEM学院项目,提供5天的严格指导,加上一年的便利指导和高质量的资源,以改善课堂教学。每年参与的20-50名教育工作者在他们的课堂上定制和实施策略和工具,这些策略和工具是他们设计的,对学生在工程和IT领域的STEM技术人员项目的成果产生直接的积极影响。项目采用的材料和方法包括以下有效的基于研究的实践:1)提供面对面和在线的严格培训内容、资源、工具和策略,重点关注STEM中的微信、性别和多样性;2)结合NAPEEF的五步计划改进过程,以持续的教育工作者反馈、同伴支持和计划修订;3)建立专业学习社区,吸引和支持参与者;4)提供同伴辅导培训,建立教育工作者学习和支持网络;5)收集定量和定性数据,描述通过技术教育渠道和期刊出版传播对学生成绩的影响。智力优势:EE-STEM采用了最初开发并交付给达拉斯独立学区物理教师的基于研究的教学材料和策略,这使得女孩的物理通过率和参加AP物理考试的女孩人数显著增加。在STEM技术教育领域领先的内容专家的投入下,NAPEEF对该课程进行了调整和改进,以改善教师的教学方法,并确保在目标技术项目和服务于项目教育管道的共同核心课程中,不同的年轻女性和代表性不足的群体的学生成绩得到改善。更广泛的影响:EE-STEM学院通过让教育工作者意识到我们所有人都有隐性偏见,并导致课堂上的不平等,从而使他们根据不同人群的需求制定独特的定制策略。教育工作者集体和个人选择、开发和评估当前可用的教学工具、资源和策略,以应用于他们的具体项目,以提高学生的成绩。NAPEEF通过其由40个州教育机构和社区学院组成的全国分销网络分销由此产生的产品和服务。预计这一经过调整的有效实践项目的初步提供的结果将是对其在美国所有STEM技术人员学习项目实施的影响的理解
英文摘要
The Educators' Equity (EE) STEM Academy aims to enhance recruitment and academic success of women and underrepresented students in technician education STEM courses and programs by providing professional growth opportunities for community college faculty and secondary teachers. The National Alliance for Partnership in Equity Education Foundation (NAPEEF), together with the Community College of Baltimore County, Baltimore County Public Schools and two regionally-based ATE Centers, created the EE-STEM Academy project to deliver 5 days of rigorous instruction, plus a year of facilitated coaching and high quality resources to improve classroom pedagogy. The 20-50 educators who participate each year customize and implement the strategies and tools in their classrooms, ones that they have designed to have a direct positive impact on student outcomes in STEM technician programs in engineering and IT. The materials and methods featured in the project include the following effective, research-based practices: 1) delivery of face-to-face and on-line rigorous training content, resources, tools, and strategies focused on micro-messaging, gender, and diversity in STEM; 2) incorporation of NAPEEF's Five Step Program Improvement Process for continuous educator feedback, peer support, and program revision; 3) building of professional learning communities to engage and support participants; 4) provision of peer-coaching training to build the network of educator learning and support; and 5) collection of quantitative and qualitative data that describe the impact on student performance for dissemination through technical education channels and journal publication. Intellectual Merit: EE-STEM adapts research-based instructional materials and strategies originally developed and delivered to physics teachers in the Dallas Independent School District, which resulted in significant increases in the physics pass rate for girls and in the number of girls taking the AP Physics exam. With input from leading content experts in STEM technician education, NAPEEF adapts and enhances this curriculum to improve faculty pedagogy and assure improvements in student outcomes among a diversity of young women and underrepresented groups in targeted technician programs, and in the common core classes that serve the programs' educational pipeline. Broader Impacts: The EE-STEM Academy engages educators to create customized strategies unique to their diverse population's needs by making them aware of the implicit biases that we all have and which cause inequities in the classroom. Educators collectively and individually select, develop, and evaluate currently available pedagogical tools, resources, and strategies as applied to their specific programs in order to improve student outcomes. NAPEEF distributes the resulting products and services through its national distribution network of 40 state education agencies and community colleges. It is anticipated that results of the initial offerings of this adapted effective practice program will be the understanding of its impact for implementation in all STEM technician programs of study in the U.S.
