The project entitled - Philander Smith College HBCU-UP Project II - builds on a very successful previous implementation project and has the goal to have an impact on the institutional capacity by enhancing the competitiveness, currency, and efficiency of the STEM education experience at Philander Smith College (PSC). In the 2011-2012 academic year, 221 of the 732 students enrolled at the institution were STEM majors. The project seeks to increase the number of research prepared students, STEM graduates, and students attending graduate schools with a STEM focus. The project aims to enhance the current STEM undergraduate research infrastructure, improve STEM education by developing and implementing cyberinfrastructure-based strategies in teaching and learning, and prepare incoming freshmen for the transition from high school to college.The project will establish models that promote the integration of inquiry-based learning environments in STEM disciplines through scholarly research. It seeks to infuse effective innovative cyberinfrastructure-based resources, concepts, and tools to enhance the overall integration of technology in PSC's STEM educational setting. Stakeholders include underrepresented high school students, undergraduate students, and the overall STEM community. Results will be published to contribute to the body of knowledge that will lead to the understanding of educating underrepresented undergraduate students in STEM at a small liberal arts institution.

该项目名为Philander Smith College hbcu - upproject II，建立在一个非常成功的先前实施项目的基础上，目标是通过提高Philander Smith College (PSC) STEM教育经验的竞争力、货币和效率，对机构能力产生影响。在2011-2012学年，该校732名学生中有221名是STEM专业的学生。该项目旨在增加有研究准备的学生、STEM毕业生和以STEM为重点的研究生院学生的数量。该项目旨在加强现有的STEM本科研究基础设施，通过制定和实施基于网络基础设施的教学和学习策略来改善STEM教育，并为即将入学的新生从高中过渡到大学做好准备。该项目将建立模型，通过学术研究促进STEM学科中基于探究的学习环境的整合。它寻求注入有效的创新的基于网络基础设施的资源、概念和工具，以加强PSC的STEM教育环境中技术的整体整合。利益相关者包括代表性不足的高中生、本科生和整个STEM社区。结果将被公布，以促进知识体系，从而使人们了解在小型文科院校教育代表性不足的STEM本科生。
