项目摘要

This project aims to serve the national interest by establishing STEM education practices to improve civil and environmental engineering curriculum for students working with communities on the equitable development of critical infrastructure. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was established 50 years ago to ensure that all Americans are protected from significant risks to human health and the environment where they live, learn, and work. However, low-income communities of color continue to be disproportionately exposed to air and water pollution. Disparities in exposure to air and water pollution have led to scholarship on environmental justice principles, which asserts that communities are entitled to equal protection of environmental and public health laws and regulations. Professional societies and national academies are actively involved in these discussions. For example, the American Society of Civil Engineers’ (ASCE) statement on justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion calls for building mutually beneficial partnerships with engineering and non-engineering organizations and advancing a research agenda centered on equitable and inclusive engineering education, research, and practice. An overarching challenge for environmental engineering is educational reform to ensure holistic solutions that build on authentic partnerships with community stakeholders, especially those whose agency has historically been limited in environmental decision making. The project team plans to collaborate on the development of curriculum that focuses on fair treatment and equitable involvement of communities in the planning and design of critical infrastructures.The goal of this project is to develop and implement a suite of integrated, interdisciplinary, community-engaged, anti-Black-racism training opportunities for civil and environmental engineering undergraduates to build capacity for addressing complex and interconnected challenges of our time. The new curricula for undergraduate civil and environmental engineering and anthropology training is intended to address anti-Black-racism as it relates to urban infrastructure while partnering with local entities to build equitable communities. African American communities in the Tampa Bay and San Francisco Bay regions will serve as the convergence space where academic educators/researchers, community members, and practitioners begin to create and implement innovative course materials in a set of five engineering courses that will help students achieve ABET accredited student learning outcomes. The project aims to include additional faculty at the two institutions who have expressed interest in participating in the project’s workshops that would impact additional engineering courses. Results from the proposed research will be disseminated through channels to reach diverse stakeholders at multiple universities through faculty workshops/seminars, community meetings, and an annual Institute on Black Life conference that focuses on community engaged partnership and scholarship. Project results will be shared with STEM educators at national conferences convened by societies such as the Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors, American Society of Engineering Education conference, and the American Educational Research Association. The NSF IUSE: EHR Program supports research and development projects to improve the effectiveness of STEM education for all students. Through the Engaged Student Learning track, the program supports the creation, exploration, and implementation of promising practices and tools.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.
该项目旨在通过建立 STEM 教育实践来服务于国家利益,以改善与社区合作实现关键基础设施公平发展的学生的土木和环境工程课程。美国环境保护局成立于 50 年前,旨在确保所有美国人免受人类健康及其生活、学习和工作环境的重大风险。然而,低收入有色人种社区仍然不成比例地受到空气和水污染的影响。空气和水污染暴露程度的差异导致了环境正义原则的学术研究,该原则主张社区有权受到环境和公共卫生法律法规的平等保护。专业协会和国家科学院积极参与这些讨论。例如,美国土木工程师学会(ASCE)关于正义、公平、多样性和包容性的声明呼吁与工程和非工程组织建立互利的伙伴关系,并推进以公平和包容性的工程教育、研究和实践为中心的研究议程。环境工程面临的首要挑战是教育改革,以确保整体解决方案建立在与社区利益相关者,特别是那些历史上在环境决策方面受到限制的机构的真正伙伴关系的基础上。该项目团队计划合作开发课程,重点关注公平待遇和社区公平参与关键基础设施的规划和设计。该项目的目标是为土木和环境工程本科生开发和实施一套综合的、跨学科的、社区参与的反黑人种族主义培训机会,以培养应对当今时代复杂且相互关联的挑战的能力。本科土木和环境工程以及人类学培训的新课程旨在解决与城市基础设施相关的反黑人种族主义问题,同时与当地实体合作建立公平的社区。坦帕湾和旧金山湾地区的非裔美国人社区将成为学术教育者/研究人员、社区成员和从业者的汇聚空间,在这里,学术教育者/研究人员、社区成员和从业者开始在五门工程课程中创建和实施创新课程材料,帮助学生实现 ABET 认证的学生学习成果。该项目旨在吸纳这两个机构的更多教师,他们表示有兴趣参加该项目的研讨会,这将影响更多的工程课程。拟议研究的结果将通过教师讲习班/研讨会、社区会议和黑人生活研究所年度会议(重点关注社区参与伙伴关系和奖学金)等渠道传播到多所大学的不同利益相关者。项目成果将在环境工程与科学教授协会、美国工程教育学会会议和美国教育研究协会等协会召开的全国会议上与 STEM 教育工作者分享。 NSF IUSE:EHR 计划支持研究和开发项目,以提高所有学生 STEM 教育的有效性。通过参与学生学习轨道,该计划支持有前途的实践和工具的创建、探索和实施。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影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
