项目摘要

Broadening Participation Research Centers provide support to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to conduct broadening participation research and serve as national hubs for the rigorous study and broad dissemination of the critical theories, structures and pedagogies, as well as culturally sensitive interventions that contribute to the success of HBCUs in educating African American STEM undergraduates. The project at Morehouse College, in partnership with Spelman College and Virginia State University, seeks to formally establish the HBCU STEM Undergraduate Success Research Center – STEM-US. The mission of the center is to “understand and tell the stories of HBCUs through convergence research for us and the Nation; thereby, documenting the legacy of excellence in STEM education at HBCUs and contributing to future educational innovation”. Among higher education institutions, HBCUs have a sustained record of consistently producing a diverse group of graduates in the STEM fields who are prepared for further education and the STEM workforce. Through research, education, knowledge building, and outreach, this center will have an impact on STEM education reform and broadening participation at all HBCUs, but will also allow all of higher education, and thus society, to benefit from the experience and lessons of HBCUs in broadening participation.STEM-US will conduct a systematic and comprehensive investigation to elucidate how HBCUs with diverse academic cultures successfully graduate African American students at a higher rate than other institutions; produce a higher rate of African American STEM students receiving PhDs; and instill in students a greater sense of well-being. STEM-US will take a comprehensive approach that includes: 1) a strategy integrating research, education, knowledge transfer and outreach to understand and disseminate, at local, state and national levels, the contributions, impact, and positive legacy of HBCUs in broadening participation; 2) a common theoretical framework that exposes individual and systematic vulnerabilities while developing the institutional supports necessary to promote success and retention of students; and 3) research to support the development of evidence-based interventions that will inform education reform. Specific research projects will emanate from a core research hub consisting of three partner institutions - Morehouse College, Spelman College and Virginia State University - as well as fifty other HBCU participants. The center will conduct convergence research using a community-based participatory research model to include education and knowledge transfer that will allow for the sharing of data and results to improve student outcomes across the HBCU network. The center will conduct outreach to all accredited HBCUs with education and knowledge transfer strategies utilizing online newsletters, white papers, listservs, blogs, webinars, and workshop-based conferences. A robust external evaluation will monitor and assess progress on all objectives, providing both formative and summative assessment of all center activities. This Broadening Participation Research Center is funded by the Historically Black Colleges and Universities - Undergraduate Program, with significant and generous cofunding provided by the Alliance for Graduate Education and the Professoriate program , NSF INCLUDES, the Build and Broaden program, the EHR Core Research program, and the Convergence Accelerator program.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.

扩大参与研究中心支持历史上一直是黑人的学院和大学(HBCU)开展更广泛的参与研究，并成为严格研究和广泛传播关键理论、结构和教学方法以及对文化敏感的干预措施的国家中心，有助于HBCU成功地培养非裔美国STEM本科生。莫尔豪斯学院的这个项目与斯佩尔曼学院和弗吉尼亚州立大学合作，寻求正式建立HBCU STEM本科生成功研究中心-STEM-US。该中心的使命是“通过对我们和国家的融合研究，了解和讲述HBCU的故事；从而记录HBCU在STEM教育方面的卓越遗产，并为未来的教育创新做出贡献”。在高等教育机构中，HBCU在培养STEM领域的多样化毕业生方面有着持续的记录，这些毕业生为进一步教育和STEM劳动力做好了准备。通过研究、教育、知识建设和推广，该中心将对HBCU的STEM教育改革和扩大参与产生影响，同时也将让所有高等教育机构，从而使社会受益于HBCU在扩大参与方面的经验和教训。STEM-US将进行系统和全面的调查，以阐明具有不同学术文化的HBCU如何以比其他机构更高的比率成功地使非裔美国学生毕业；培养更高的非裔美国STEM学生获得博士学位的比例；并向学生灌输更多幸福感。STEM-US将采取一种全面的方法，其中包括：1)整合研究、教育、知识转让和外联的战略，以在地方、州和国家各级了解和传播HBCU在扩大参与方面的贡献、影响和积极遗产；2)一个共同的理论框架，暴露个人和系统的脆弱性，同时发展促进学生成功和留住学生所需的机构支持；3)研究，以支持制定将为教育改革提供信息的循证干预措施。具体的研究项目将来自一个核心研究中心，该中心由三个合作机构--莫尔豪斯学院、斯佩尔曼学院和弗吉尼亚州立大学--以及HBCU的其他50名参与者组成。该中心将使用基于社区的参与式研究模式进行融合研究，将教育和知识转移包括在内，允许共享数据和结果，以改善整个HBCU网络的学生结果。该中心将利用在线时事通讯、白皮书、列表服务、博客、网络研讨会和基于研讨会的会议，通过教育和知识转移战略向所有经认证的HBCU进行外联。强有力的外部评估将监测和评估所有目标的进展情况，为所有中心活动提供形成性和终结性评估。这个扩大参与的研究中心由历史上的黑人学院和大学-本科生计划资助，由研究生教育联盟和教授计划提供大量和慷慨的共同资助，NSF包括建立和拓宽计划、EHR核心研究计划和融合加速器计划。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
