Building the Capacity of Academic Institutions and Professional Societies to Implement Ethics Instruction on a Large-scale

匹兹堡大学将与美国科学促进会（AAAS）合作，根据埃弗雷特·罗杰斯（Everett Rogers）等人关于如何训练的一些领先研究，设计一个训练训练者的训练者（T3）模型。创新被扩散到现有的组织中。T3将加强对教师的培训，以培训负责任的研究行为的研究生，进行研究和访谈，以收集迄今为止有效的知识，计划培训培训师的研讨会，开发研讨会材料，解决教学问题，项目实施，包括发展支持道德培训，并设计与意外出现的专业发展问题相关的新课程单元。但对研究生的职业和道德成功至关重要。该提案解决了所有STEM领域的一个至关重要的需求。在STEM职业生涯中负责任的研究行为和道德行为的培训。这种模式将通过新的研讨会、课程和网站，迅速增加有能力向STEM研究生教授伦理学的人数。与美国科学促进会和其他专业协会的合作预示着材料和使用的快速和有用的增加。虽然该项目主要针对NSF相关领域的研究生，但预计课程材料和培训将对本科生、博士后、教职员工以及NSF相关领域以外的教职员工的伦理学教学有用。

The University of Pittsburgh in conjunction with the American Association for the Advancement of Scien(AAAS) will design a Train the Trainers of Trainers (T3) model based on some of the leading research of Everett Rogers and others about how .innovations are diffused into existing organizations. T3 will ramp up the training of faculty to train others who train graduate students in responsible conduct of research, conduct research and interviews to gather knowledge about what has worked to date, plan the workshop for training the trainers, develop workshop materials that address issues of pedagogy, program implementation including, the development of support for ethics training, and design new curricula units that relate to professional development issues that arise unexpectedly, but are critical to the professional and ethical success of the graduate students. The proposal addresses a critically important need across all STEM fields?the training in responsible conduct of research and ethical behavior throughout a STEM career. The model will rapidly multiply the number of people capable of teaching ethics to STEM graduate students with new workshops, curricula and websites. The collaboration with AAAS and other professional societies augurs well for a fast and useful ramp-up of materials and usage. While the project focuses on graduate students in NSF related fields, it is anticipated that the curriculum materials and training will be useful for teaching ethics to undergraduates, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty, and staff in fields beyond those that are NSF related.
