With support from the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSI) Program, this New York HSI Hub project aims to bring about systemic improvements for 14 diverse and highly enrolled New York City area SUNY and CUNY community colleges through a five-year program of professional development in culturally responsive instruction, faculty learning communities, and grantsmanship mentoring of STEM faculty. The Hub’s activities will help address challenges community colleges face when attempting to build capacity for institutional change. Moreover, this project will expand the STEM pipeline for students in participating colleges by providing faculty with tools for effective teaching in diverse environments and for pursuing future grant funding to support efforts responsive to student success in STEM.This project aims to strengthen STEM education at the 14 participating colleges by offering a five-year program of a) faculty professional development in culturally responsive instructional methods to advance STEM success for students that represent the full spectrum of diverse talent at HSIs, and b) grantsmanship mentoring to increase the capacity of STEM faculty to competitively pursue NSF HSI funding to further accelerate culturally responsive instruction and related program improvements. Through workshops and network-building, the project uses Participatory Action Research to help faculty reflect and develop their teaching methods. Results of the project include creating an engaging and impactful classroom experience for community college STEM students, and successful grant development among the 14 participating colleges. Findings on the impacts of Participatory Action Research and grantsmanship training will be disseminated widely through national conferences and webinars. Results will also be disseminated through SUNY and CUNY systemwide meetings and events. This project is funded by the HSI Program, which aims to enhance undergraduate STEM education, broaden participation in STEM, and build capacity at HSIs.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.

在改善本科STEM教育：西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）计划的支持下，这个纽约HSI中心项目旨在通过一个为期五年的专业发展计划，为14个多样化和高入学率的纽约市地区的SUNY和CUNY社区学院带来系统性的改善，包括文化响应式教学，教师学习社区和STEM教师的导师指导。该中心的活动将有助于解决社区学院在试图建立机构变革能力时面临的挑战。此外，委员会认为，该项目将通过为教师提供在不同环境中进行有效教学的工具，并为未来的赠款资金提供支持，以支持学生在STEM中取得成功的努力，从而为参与学院的学生扩大STEM管道。该项目旨在通过提供一个为期五年的计划，加强14所参与学院的STEM教育教师专业发展的文化响应教学方法，以促进STEM成功的学生，代表在HSIs的各种人才的全方位，和B）granitarian指导，以提高STEM教师的能力，以竞争性地追求NSF HSI资金，以进一步加快文化响应教学和相关计划的改进。通过研讨会和网络建设，该项目使用启发式行动研究，以帮助教师反思和发展他们的教学方法。该项目的成果包括为社区大学STEM学生创造一个引人入胜和有影响力的课堂体验，以及在14所参与学院中成功开发赠款。将通过国家会议和网络研讨会广泛传播关于预防性行动研究和预防性培训的影响的调查结果。还将通过纽约州立大学和纽约市立大学全系统的会议和活动传播成果。该项目由HSI计划资助，旨在加强本科STEM教育，扩大STEM参与，并建立HSI的能力。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。
