The University of Wisconsin-Madison, Iowa State University, University of Pittsburgh, University of Texas at El Paso, Michigan State University, University of Georgia and University of California, Los Angeles will lead this Design and Development Launch Pilot to build the foundation for a national alliance that will prepare a new national STEM faculty, spanning all of post-secondary education, able to use evidence-based teaching, mentoring and advising practices that yield greater learning, persistence and completion of women and historically underrepresented minorities (URM) undergraduates in STEM. This project was created by this group of institutions, who are members of the Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching and Learning (CIRTL), in response to the Inclusion across the Nation of Communities of Learners of Underrepresented Discoverers in Engineering and Science (NSF INCLUDES) program solicitation (NSF 16-544). The INCLUDES program is a comprehensive national initiative designed to enhance U.S. leadership in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) discoveries and innovations focused on NSF's commitment to diversity, inclusion, and broadening participation in these fields. The INCLUDES Design and Development Launch Pilots represent bold, innovative ways for solving a broadening participation challenge in STEM.The full participation of all of America's STEM talent is critical to the advancement of science and engineering for national security, health and prosperity. Our nation is advancing knowledge and practices to address a STEM achievement and the graduation gap between undergraduate STEM students who are women and men, and between those who are URMs and non-URMs. At the same time U.S. universities and colleges struggle to recruit, retain and promote a diverse STEM graduate student body, and a diverse STEM faculty, who serve as role models and academic leaders for URM and female students to learn from, to work with and to emulate. This project, the CIRTL INCLUDES - Toward an Alliance to Prepare a National Faculty for Broadening Success of Underrepresented 2-Year and 4-Year STEM Students, has the potential to advance a national network of organizations to improve the success of future STEM faculty who will educate a diverse undergraduate body and contribute to the learning, retention and graduation of women and URMs in STEM fields.The collaborating CIRTL universities will work closely with multiple organizations to address key goals, including Achieving the Dream, Advanced Technological Education Central, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Mathematical Society of Two-Year Colleges, the American Physical Society, the American Society for Engineering Education, the Association of American Universities, the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities, the Council of Graduate Schools, the Council for the Study of Community Colleges, Excelencia in Education, the Infrastructure for Broadening Participation in STEM, the Louis Stokes Midwest Center for Excellence, the Math Alliance, the National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development, the National Research Mentoring Network, the Partnership for Undergraduate Life Science Education, the Southern Regional Education Board, the Summer Institutes on Scientific Teaching, and the Women in Engineering Programs and Advocates Network. Together, this extensive collaborative network will three goals: (1) To deepen the preparation of future STEM faculty in teaching, mentoring and advising practices that promote the success of undergraduates who are women and URMs; (2) To expand and strengthen faculty preparation specifically for 2-year colleges; and (3) To target the preparation of future STEM faculty who are members of underrepresented groups for effective teaching and mentoring, contributing to their early-career success. The seven universities who are partnering to lead this project will work to: (1) Form active partnerships and national coalitions for each of the three goals; (2) Employ a collective impact framework for each goal team and the entire alliance, ensuring common agendas, shared metrics, mutually reinforcing activities and an integrated process using data improvement cycles; and (3) Achieve pilot outcomes that position the alliance for future work.

威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校、爱荷华州立大学、匹兹堡大学、德克萨斯大学埃尔帕索分校、密歇根州立大学、佐治亚大学和加州大学洛杉矶分校将领导这项设计与开发启动试点，为建立一个全国性联盟奠定基础，该联盟将培养一支新的全国性STEM教师队伍，涵盖所有的高等教育，能够使用循证教学、指导和建议实践，从而产生更好的学习效果。坚持和完成女性和历史上代表性不足的少数民族（URM）本科生的STEM。这个项目是由这组机构创建的，他们是研究，教学和学习整合中心（CIRTL）的成员，以响应工程和科学中代表性不足的发现者的学习者全国社区（NSF INCLUDES）计划的征求（NSF 16-544）。INCLUDES项目是一项综合性的国家倡议，旨在加强美国在科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）发现和创新方面的领导地位，重点关注NSF在这些领域的多样性、包容性和扩大参与的承诺。INCLUDES设计和开发启动试点项目代表了解决STEM领域日益扩大的参与挑战的大胆、创新的方式。美国所有STEM人才的充分参与，对于科学和工程的进步、国家安全、健康和繁荣至关重要。我们的国家正在推进知识和实践，以解决STEM成就和本科STEM学生之间的毕业差距，女性和男性，以及那些是urm和非urm。与此同时，美国的大学和学院努力招收、保留和促进多元化的STEM研究生群体，以及多元化的STEM教师，他们是URM和女学生学习、合作和效仿的榜样和学术领袖。该项目名为CIRTL INCLUDES——建立全国教职工联盟，以扩大代表性不足的2年级和4年级STEM学生的成功，该项目有可能推动全国组织网络，以提高未来STEM教职工的成功程度，这些教职工将教育多元化的本科群体，并为STEM领域的女性和urm的学习、保留和毕业做出贡献。合作的CIRTL大学将与多个组织密切合作，以实现关键目标，包括实现梦想，先进技术教育中心，美国科学促进会，美国两年制大学数学学会，美国物理学会，美国工程教育学会，美国大学协会，公立和赠地大学协会，研究生院理事会，社区学院研究委员会、卓越教育、扩大STEM参与基础设施、路易斯·斯托克斯中西部卓越中心、数学联盟、国家员工和组织发展研究所、国家研究指导网络、本科生生命科学教育伙伴关系、南部地区教育委员会、科学教学暑期学院、以及工程项目和倡导网络中的女性。总的来说，这个广泛的合作网络将实现三个目标：(1)在教学、指导和建议实践方面深化对未来STEM教师的准备，以促进女性本科生和urm的成功；（二）扩大和加强专为两年制专科学校准备的师资队伍；(3)针对代表性不足群体的未来STEM教师进行有效的教学和指导，为他们的早期职业成功做出贡献。合作领导这一项目的七所大学将努力：(1)为这三个目标中的每一个目标建立积极的伙伴关系和国家联盟；(2)为每个目标团队和整个联盟采用集体影响框架，确保共同议程、共享指标、相互加强的活动和使用数据改进周期的集成过程；(3)取得为联盟未来工作定位的试点成果。
