SICB 2021 Conference Symposium Biology

项目摘要

This award funds a symposium to be held at the annual meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB) on effective teaching approaches for engaging diverse groups of students in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines. The meeting typically attracts approximately 2,000 scientists, most of whom are responsible for teaching university courses and will be able to quickly implement changes in their teaching to better support students. A total of 16 symposium speakers from a range of institutions will present their work on innovative teaching approaches, providing essential training for attendees. This project will also support the facilitation of a community outreach workshop led by aspiring teenage scientists who will share their experiences enhancing science understanding in their neighborhoods. Together, the symposium presentations and workshop will provide essential professional development for integrative biologists to fill a need among university-level instructors and ensure more equitable institutions of higher education. In addition, an “Ask an Education Expert” booth on experiential STEM learning will be available to all SICB attendees throughout the meeting. Results will be disseminated through publications and social media, and participants will submit pedagogical materials to SICB’s Research and Education Resources online, open-access database, thereby expanding the impact beyond the meeting. This project provides support for an education-focused symposium at the annual meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB) to be held in Washington, D.C., in January 2021. Symposium speakers will showcase innovative approaches for engaging undergraduate and graduate students in experiential science learning. Specifically, the symposium will highlight three high-impact practices that allow students to take their science learning outside of the classroom for increased relevance and authenticity: 1) Course-based undergraduate research (CUREs), 2) Digital fabrication in makerspaces, and 3) Service- or Community-based learning. Although each topic is unique, all provide an alternative approach to traditional lectures and have proven effective at appealing to diverse groups of students who are traditionally underrepresented in the STEM workforce. Further, each symposium speaker will contribute a manuscript for publication in the SICB journal, Integrative and Comparative Biology. In addition, symposium participants will contribute to two joint papers, one a review and the other which will provide insights into grand challenges currently facing the field of STEM education and recommendations for key shifts that are necessary to broaden participation in the next decade. The symposium presentations and deliverables will advance knowledge of effective teaching practices and research methods to investigate the efficacy of those practices for an audience of integrative biologists and educators, many of whom have not received formal training in teaching or education research.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.

该奖项资助将在综合与比较生物学学会（SICB）年会上举行的研讨会，讨论有效的教学方法，以吸引科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）学科的不同学生群体。会议通常吸引约2，000名科学家，其中大多数负责教授大学课程，并将能够迅速实施教学改革，以更好地支持学生。来自一系列机构的16位研讨会发言人将介绍他们在创新教学方法方面的工作，为与会者提供必要的培训。该项目还将支持由有抱负的青少年科学家领导的社区外展研讨会的便利化，他们将分享他们的经验，提高他们社区对科学的理解。研讨会和研讨会将为综合生物学家提供必要的专业发展，以满足大学教师的需求，并确保更公平的高等教育机构。此外，在整个会议期间，将向所有SICB与会者提供一个关于体验式STEM学习的“询问教育专家”摊位。成果将通过出版物和社交媒体传播，与会者将向SICB的研究和教育资源在线开放数据库提交教学材料，从而扩大会议以外的影响。本项目为将在华盛顿，华盛顿特区举行的综合与比较生物学学会（SICB）年会上以教育为重点的专题讨论会提供支持，2021年1月。研讨会发言人将展示创新的方法，让本科生和研究生参与体验式科学学习。具体来说，研讨会将突出三个高影响力的做法，让学生把他们的科学学习课堂外，以提高相关性和真实性：1）基于课程的本科生研究（CURES），2）数字制造在makerspaces，和3）服务或社区为基础的学习。虽然每个主题都是独特的，但都提供了传统讲座的替代方法，并已被证明有效地吸引了传统上在STEM劳动力中代表性不足的各种学生群体。此外，每个研讨会发言人将贡献一份手稿，在SICB杂志上发表，综合和比较生物学。此外，研讨会与会者将为两份联合文件做出贡献，一份是审查，另一份将深入了解STEM教育领域目前面临的重大挑战，并就未来十年扩大参与所需的关键转变提出建议。研讨会的演讲和交付成果将促进有效的教学实践和研究方法的知识，以调查这些实践的有效性，为观众的综合生物学家和教育工作者，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进行评估，被认为值得支持的搜索.
