项目摘要

A collection of teaching practices that has been successful in promoting K-12 student engagement is "culturally sustaining pedagogies" (CSPs). CSPs seek to create an inclusive educational experience that benefits all students, including traditionally underserved students. The potential of CSPs to improve learning has not yet been explored in undergraduate engineering. This project will apply a CSP strategy to design and teach a new sophomore-level energy course that will be required for undergraduate engineering majors at the University of San Diego. Energy is a foundational concept across engineering disciplines, but it is typically introduced to students in thermodynamics courses, that do not usually provide a context that engages women or under-represented minorities in engineering. By integrating energy practices from non-Western cultures, the course may help all students develop a broader perspective of energy issues and solutions. The research project will examine how the integration of CSPs affects engineering students. Specifically, energy examples outside of those traditionally used in thermodynamics will be identified, a course developed that integrates these non-traditional examples using CSPs will be designed, and a mixed methods research will be used to investigate how CSPs impact student learning, mindsets, and attitudes. Teaching materials will be freely available so that other faculty may use CSPs to engage their students. Consistent with NSF's mission to a diverse the STEM workforce, this project aims to promote inclusion within engineering and thus to support broader participation and increased diversity in STEM fields.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.
在促进K-12学生参与方面取得成功的一系列教学实践是“文化持续性教学法”(CSPs)。CSP寻求创造一种包容性的教育体验,使所有学生受益,包括传统上服务不足的学生。CSP的潜力,以改善学习尚未在本科工程探索。 该项目将应用CSP策略来设计和教授圣地亚哥大学本科工程专业所需的新的走廊级能源课程。 能源是工程学科的一个基本概念,但它通常是介绍给学生在热力学课程,这通常不提供一个背景下,从事妇女或代表性不足的少数民族工程。通过整合来自非西方文化的能源实践,本课程可以帮助所有学生发展能源问题和解决方案的更广阔的视角。该研究项目将研究CSP的整合如何影响工程专业的学生。具体来说,将确定传统热力学中使用的能源例子之外,将设计一门课程,将这些非传统的例子与CSP相结合,并将使用混合方法研究CSP如何影响学生的学习,心态和态度。教学材料将免费提供,以便其他教师可以使用CSP来吸引学生。与NSF的使命一致,该项目旨在促进工程领域的包容性,从而支持更广泛的参与和增加STEM领域的多样性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
