项目摘要

The Louis Stokes Midwest Regional Center of Excellence (LSMRCE) for Broadening Participation in STEM is a partnership of Chicago State University (CSU) and Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI). As co-founders of the pilot, Louis Stokes Midwest Center of Excellence (LSMCE),CSU and IUPUI extend the partnership to include the Ohio State University (OSU) and Fermi NationalAccelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in order to deepen collaborations with 6 Midwestern Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation Programs (LSAMPs), while strengthening existing partnerships with non-LSAMP institutions that are LSMCE collaborators. The LSMRCE also aims to become a regional backbone support organization for information dissemination that contributes to the development of the NSF Inclusion across the Nation of Communities of Learners of Underrepresented Discoverers in Engineering and Science (INCLUDES) National Network. The LSMRCE will develop, house, and distribute results of regional efforts in the collection, analysis, and assessment of best practices as recommended in the LSAMP model. It will also contribute to fundamental research in the science of broadening participation (BP).The project team will implement four strategic plans: 1) Organize annual Broadening Participation conferences with BP professional development opportunities for students, faculty, and program administrators of both LSAMP and non-LSAMP institutions; 2) Provide socialscience research guidance and support to promote BP research collaborations among STEM faculty on LSAMP and non-LSAMP campuses; and further investigate the contributing factors that facilitate sustainable partnerships/research collaborations for improving URM academic success; 3) Demonstrate tangible outcomes of key characteristics of the LSAMP model by providing URMs at LSAMP and non-LSAMP institutions with research skill development, mentoring, and professionalization activities; and 4)Develop a virtual BP resource center using features of the LSMCE website to disseminate current program information as well as evidence-based, high-impact BP practices.The LSMRCE will obtain significant new knowledge on factors that sustain institutional collaborations that advance URM student achievement in STEM majors at Midwestern non-LSAMP campuses. The engagement in BP research collaborations of the faculty will help generate the needed data to assess STEM education efficacy that reaches across all communities of learners who will graduate and advancetheir education in STEM. The LSMRCE will become a national model for fostering connections that are essential for expanding the INCLUDES Network. The annual BP conferences, available on-line resources about LSAMP programming, and other analytics on high-impact practices in STEM teaching and learning will enable practitioners and researchers to design effective strategies for increasing the number of URMs who graduate with STEM degrees. LSMRCE summer research interns at Fermilab will be tracked and the impacts of collaborative mentoring on student persistence and advancement in STEM will be studied.This project is co-funded by the NSF INCLUDES program which focuses on catalyzing the STEM enterprise to collaboratively work for inclusive change.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

Louis Stokes中西部区域卓越中心（LSMRCE）扩大STEM参与是芝加哥州立大学（CSU）和印第安纳州普渡大学印第安纳波利斯（IUPUI）的合作伙伴关系。作为试点项目的联合创始人，路易斯·斯托克斯中西部卓越中心（LSMCE），CSU和IUPUI将合作伙伴关系扩展到包括俄亥俄州州立大学（OSU）和费米国家加速器实验室（Fermilab），以加深与6个中西部路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与计划联盟（LSAMP）的合作，同时加强与LSMCE合作者的非LSAMP机构的现有合作伙伴关系。LSMRCE还旨在成为信息传播的区域骨干支持组织，有助于在工程和科学（INCLUDES）国家网络中发展NSF包容性。LSMRCE将根据LSAMP模式的建议，制定、储存和分发区域努力收集、分析和评估最佳做法的成果。项目组将实施四项战略计划：1）为LSAMP和非LSAMP机构的学生、教师和项目管理人员组织年度扩大参与会议，为BP提供专业发展机会; 2）提供社会科学研究指导和支持，以促进LSAMP和非LSAMP校园STEM教师之间的BP研究合作;进一步调查促进可持续伙伴关系/研究合作以提高URM学术成功的因素; 3）通过为LSAMP和非LSAMP机构的URM提供研究技能发展，展示LSAMP模型关键特征的切实成果，指导和专业化活动;以及4）利用LSMCE网站的功能开发一个虚拟BP资源中心，以传播当前的计划信息以及基于证据的，高影响力的BP实践。LSMRCE将获得有关维持机构合作的因素的重要新知识，这些合作促进了中西部非LSAMP校园的URM学生在STEM专业的成绩。参与BP研究合作的教师将有助于生成所需的数据，以评估STEM教育的有效性，这些数据将覆盖所有将毕业并推进STEM教育的学习者社区。LSMRCE将成为促进对扩大INCLUDES网络至关重要的联系的国家模式。年度BP会议，有关LSAMP编程的在线资源以及对STEM教学和学习中高影响力实践的其他分析将使从业者和研究人员能够设计有效的策略，以增加获得STEM学位的URM毕业生的数量。LSMRCE在费米实验室的暑期研究实习生将被跟踪，并将研究合作指导对学生坚持和STEM进步的影响。该奖项由NSF INCLUDES计划资助，该计划专注于催化STEM企业协同工作以实现包容性变革。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的评估被认为值得支持。影响审查标准。
