Strategies: The Eyes Say it All: Using web page design and eye-tracking technology to learn STEM concepts, research skills, and human factors

塔斯基吉大学邀请了150名8-12年级的学生参加为期三周的暑期研讨会，主题是STEM内容、网页设计、人机交互的多学科领域，以及职业研究研讨会/网络研讨会。学生们设计一个包含STEM内容的网站，然后使用一种名为眼球跟踪器的技术来测试他们交流的有效性。项目设计结合了学习最佳实践的三个方面，并将其扩展到基于技术的教学法：以写为学、以学为写和以项目为基础的学习。学生小组将使用基于项目的学习，并将学习如何设计网页(布局，结合内容)作为学习-写作组件，然后将适当的STEM内容作为写作-学习机制来学习STEM概念。该项目将主要针对STEM职业生涯中传统上代表性不足的群体的学生。讲习班将在两个历史悠久的黑人学院和大学(HBCU)地点举行：塔斯基吉大学和阿拉巴马州立大学。该计划将与阿拉巴马州目前基于共同核心的学习课程保持一致。

Tuskegee University engages 150 students in grades 8-12 in three-week summer workshops featuring STEM content, web-design, the multi-disciplinary area of human-computer interaction, and career study seminars/webinars. Students design a website incorporating STEM content, and then use a technology called eye-tracker to test the effectiveness of their communication. The project design combines three aspects of best practices in learning and extends them to a technology-based pedagogy: writing-to-learn, learning-to-write, and project-based learning. Teams of students will use project-based learning and will learn how to design a web-page (layout, incorporating content) as the learn-to-write component and then incorporate appropriate STEM content as the writing-to-learn mechanism to learn STEM concepts. The project will primarily target students from groups traditionally under-represented in STEM careers. Workshops will be held at two Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) sites: Tuskegee University and Alabama State University. The program will be aligned with the Alabama Course of Study which is currently based on the Common Core.
