This grant will partially fund a workshop titled: Workshop on Communicating STEM through STEM Education in Hawaii. The funds provided in this award will be used exclusively to pay for the participation of undergraduate and graduate students in this workshop. The primary goals of the workshop are to:* Improve the communication skills of students and early-career scientists and engineers* Improve the understanding of how improvements to high school and college science curricula can help advance diverse students into STEM careers* Make connections between students and the technology industry on Maui* Enhance the participation of local students into the Akamai Workforce Initiative.The student participants will attend two seminars on effective communication and then present a poster using the methods of communication they learned in the seminars. The posters will be presented at the Maui Science and Technology Education Exchange meeting. After the workshop and poster presentations the students will write-up their projects and those project summaries will be included on a web page and in a published booklet. This workshop will concentrate on the theme of 'workforce development', especially as related to the astronomy research that is conducted on Maui and the island of Hawaii.

这笔赠款将部分资助在夏威夷举办的题为：通过STEM教育传播STEM的研讨会。该奖项提供的资金将专门用于支付本科生和研究生参加此次研讨会的费用。研讨会的主要目标是：*提高学生和职业早期科学家和工程师的沟通技能*提高对高中和大学科学课程的改进如何帮助不同的学生进入STEM职业生涯的理解*在毛伊岛建立学生与科技行业的联系*加强当地学生对Akamai劳动力计划的参与。学生参与者将参加两个关于有效沟通的研讨会，然后使用他们在研讨会中学到的沟通方法展示海报。海报将在毛伊岛科技教育交流会上展示。在研讨会和海报演示之后，学生们将撰写他们的项目，这些项目摘要将被包括在网页和出版的小册子中。该讲习班将集中讨论“劳动力发展”这一主题，特别是与在毛伊岛和夏威夷岛进行的天文研究有关的主题。
