项目摘要

The Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) through Targeted Infusion Projects supports the development, implementation, and study of evidence-based innovative models and approaches for improving the preparation and success of HBCU undergraduate students so that they may pursue STEM graduate programs and/or careers. The project at Jarvis Christian College will promote and expose the interface between computational and applied mathematics and Life STEM and build capacities in the learning, teaching, and research of under-represented minority students in cutting edge computational and applied mathematics tools, techniques and concepts applicable for biology. The project activities will provide professional development for faculty, increase recruitment, student retention and graduation rates and provide pathways for minority students to pursue graduate study and careers in computation and mathematical biology. The project objectives of the I-JUMP project are 1) to enrich the mathematics curriculum by embedding cutting edge computational and mathematical biology tools, techniques, and concepts into the mathematics courses; 2) to improve teaching strategy through converging differentiated instruction with cutting edge technology to engage the students in learning new concepts; 3) to expand students? visibilities and competencies in computational and mathematical biology research via infusion of computational and mathematical biology research into the existing undergraduate research curricula, research internships, and peer-mentored research and 4) to update teaching and research infrastructure to support the new teaching strategies and the inquiry, project and research-based courses in computational and mathematical biology and mathematics general education courses. The outcomes of the project will embed the concepts of mathematical biology into every student's education at Jarvis Christian College. The training and knowledge in mathematical biology will provide graduates with the critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and communication skills that will benefit them in their selected career pathways. Moreover, the project will create opportunities for minority and underrepresented students to participate in undergraduate research, pursue graduate study, and provide a pathway to careers in computational biology.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.

历史上的黑人学院和大学本科生计划（HBCU-UP）通过有针对性的输液项目支持开发，实施和基于证据的创新模式和方法的研究，以提高HBCU本科生的准备和成功，使他们可以追求STEM研究生课程和/或职业。贾维斯基督教学院的项目将促进和揭示计算和应用数学与生命STEM之间的接口，并在学习，教学和研究方面为代表性不足的少数民族学生建立适用于生物学的尖端计算和应用数学工具，技术和概念的能力。项目活动将为教师提供专业发展，提高招聘、学生保留率和毕业率，并为少数民族学生提供途径，使他们能够在计算和数学生物学领域进行研究生学习和职业生涯。I-JUMP项目的项目目标是：1）通过在数学课程中嵌入尖端的计算和数学生物学工具、技术和概念来丰富数学课程; 2）通过融合差异化教学与尖端技术来改善教学策略，让学生学习新概念; 3）扩大学生的学习空间，使他们能够更好地学习数学。通过将计算和数学生物学研究注入现有的本科研究课程，研究实习和同行指导研究，提高计算和数学生物学研究的活力和能力; 4）更新教学和研究基础设施，以支持新的教学策略以及计算和数学生物学和数学通识教育课程中的探究，项目和研究课程。该项目的成果将嵌入数学生物学的概念到每个学生的教育在贾维斯基督教学院。数学生物学的培训和知识将为毕业生提供批判性思维，协作，创造力和沟通技巧，这将使他们在选定的职业道路上受益。此外，该项目将为少数民族和代表性不足的学生创造机会，参与本科研究，攻读研究生课程，并提供一个途径，以计算生物学的职业生涯。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
