中文摘要
圣玛丽学院(CSM)的玛丽·居里学者计划的目标是增加不仅获得理科本科学位,而且继续追求理科事业的女性人数。圣玛丽学院是一所全女性本科生院校,理科专业的少数民族学生比例很高。为了实现这一目标,本科科学课程让学生沉浸在积极的学习环境中--包括服务学习、拓展和研究--以便他们了解科学在世界上的角色以及他们在科学中的角色。CSM的这项计划在观察、分析和记录STEM在妇女和女性少数群体中的推广趋势和影响方面具有独特的地位。该计划建立在STEM教育研究社区的最佳实践基础上。CSM致力于科学方法、研究设计和方案撰写、科学素养和科学写作等关键科学技能和能力的显性教育。CSM将通过早期的团队建设和正在进行的S-STEM队列内的指导计划,在S-STEM学生中建立队列心态。将为学者提供高质量的学术计划,其中包括一个学习社区结构,以确保通过正式和非正式互动进行点对点交流。该项目将使用S-STEM学者撰写的具有形成性和反思性的文章进行评估,这些文章将加深他们对项目目标的理解,并向管理团队提供反馈。
英文摘要
The goal of the Marie Curie Scholars program at the College of Saint Mary (CSM), an all-female undergraduate institution with a high proportion of minority students who are underrepresented in science, is to increase the number of women who not only attain their undergraduate degrees in science, but who go on to pursue careers in science. To achieve this goal, the undergraduate science curriculum immerses the students in active learning environments - including service learning, outreach and research - so that they understand the role of science in the world and their role in science. The program at CSM is uniquely positioned to observe, analyze and document trends and effects of STEM promotion with women and female minorities.The program builds on best practices from the STEM education research community. CSM is committed to the explicit education of key scientific skills and abilities such as the scientific method, research design and proposal writing, scientific literacy and scientific writing. CSM will build a cohort mentality in S-STEM students through early team-building and ongoing mentoring programming within the S-STEM cohort. A high quality academic program for the scholars will be provided that includes a learning community structure to ensure peer-to-peer communication through both formal and informal interactions. The project will be assessed using formative, reflective essays from the S-STEM scholars that will deepen their understanding of the goals of the project as well as provide feedback to the management team.
