项目摘要
Recognizing that there is an established need in the United States to increase the number of American scientists in the workforce, this NSF Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (S-STEM) project aims to increase retention and graduation rates in biology, chemistry, environmental sciences, and physics and prepare participating STEM majors for post-graduate success. The objectives of the project are to (a) provide 24 academically talented, low income students at Longwood College with high quality support services and curricula that incorporate evidence-based practices, (b) provide professional development activities that will prepare students for future careers, (c) maintain a high level of faculty participation in curricular and co-curricular activities, and (d) investigate the outcomes of the implementation of a learning community and career-readiness activities. This S-STEM project will have a significant impact on the region surrounding Longwood College (Southern Virginia), which has a low high-school graduation rates, low college attendance, low family incomes, and a high unemployment.Drawing from emerging research on retention of STEM majors, this program will address the scholars' needs as they transition to the university environment and grow personally, academically, and professionally. Scholars will develop as scientists by honing their skills in quantitative reasoning, modeling, and simulation and learning to apply interdisciplinary approaches to complex real-world issues through an early research experience and subsequent course-embedded collaborations. Additionally, students will be immersed in an ecosystem of support designed to foster strong cohort development, build meaningful relationships with trained faculty mentors, and cultivate mindsets for postgraduate success. Throughout their college experience, students will collect key artifacts and reflect on their development as scientists using e-portfolios. Faculty mentors will initiate regular conversations about the e-portfolio work and use the information to engage the students in conversation about their progress. Formative and summative evaluation of each project component will determine the extent to which the curricular and co-curricular activities on promote students' retention to graduation. Research will address the mentoring relationship as it relates to students' transition to college and professional development. The PIs will disseminate findings, in journals such as Science Education and Civic Engagement: An International Journal, Primus, Journal of College Science Teaching, Physics Teacher, and Honors in Practice.
美国国家科学基金会的科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金(S-STEM)项目认识到,在美国有增加美国科学家数量的既定需求,旨在提高生物学、化学、环境科学和物理学的留用率和毕业率,并为参与STEM专业的研究生成功做好准备。该项目的目标是(a)为朗伍德学院的24名有学术天赋的低收入学生提供高质量的支持服务和包含循证实践的课程;(b)提供专业发展活动,为学生未来的职业生涯做好准备;(c)保持教师对课程和课外活动的高水平参与。(d)调查实施学习社区和职业准备活动的结果。这个S-STEM项目将对朗伍德学院(南弗吉尼亚)周边地区产生重大影响,该地区高中毕业率低,大学出勤率低,家庭收入低,失业率高。根据关于保留STEM专业的新兴研究,该项目将满足学者们在过渡到大学环境并在个人、学术和专业上成长时的需求。通过早期的研究经验和随后的课程合作,学者们将通过磨练他们在定量推理、建模和模拟方面的技能,并学习将跨学科的方法应用于复杂的现实世界问题,从而发展成为科学家。此外,学生将沉浸在一个支持生态系统中,旨在促进强大的队列发展,与训练有素的教师导师建立有意义的关系,并培养研究生成功的心态。在他们的大学生活中,学生们将使用电子档案收集重要的文物,并反思他们作为科学家的发展。教师导师将发起关于电子档案工作的定期对话,并利用这些信息让学生参与关于他们进展的对话。对每个项目组成部分的形成性和总结性评估将决定课程和课外活动在多大程度上促进学生毕业时的记忆。研究将解决师徒关系,因为它涉及到学生的过渡到大学和专业发展。pi将在诸如《科学教育与公民参与:国际期刊》、《Primus》、《大学科学教学期刊》、《物理教师》和《实践荣誉》等期刊上传播研究结果。
