Research on STEM mentoring shows that positive mentoring experiences have a significant impact on the success of emerging researchers in STEM fields. This project focuses on developing and implementing strategies for improving STEM mentoring specifically within the Research Experience in Mentoring (REM) programs. While the REM programs have been very successful at providing research opportunities for participants from unique demographics, the Research Experience in Mentoring (REM) PIs are asked to develop and implement a mentoring plan without any training or support in how to be effective mentors. To support effective mentoring within REM programs, the Mentoring Catalyst was established. The overarching mission of the Mentoring Catalyst is to catalyze a programmatic change that positively impacts the mentors and the student/teacher mentees by establishing a community of practice around strong mentorship, student support and research success. The REM model of sustained mentoring was used to guide the development of the initiative.The four overarching components of the Mentoring Catalyst 3.0 project are to 1) Provide REM mentor training; 2) Build and maintain the REM community of practice; 3) Develop REM mini-conferences at discipline-specific professional meetings; and 4) Develop post-programmatic mentoring resources. To achieve these goals, the REM Catalyst Initiative 3.0 will continue to implement an 8-hr online Entering Mentoring workshop, host annual REM PI meetings, while also building additional programming centered around effective post-programmatic mentorship. During the online workshops, mentors will gather to discuss mentoring topics, while also establishing a strong community of REM mentors. At the culmination of the virtual workshop mentors will develop a mentoring philosophy and a post-program mentoring plan. These philosophies and plans will be shared with the REM community through online platforms and more broadly through presentations at national meetings and peer reviewed publications. REM mentors will also be invited to participate in the annual two-day REM Mentoring Conference that will include training on how to implement mentor training at their home institutions and sharing of best-practices utilized by each unique REM program. These activities facilitate the continued establishment of a strong community of practice that brings together long-standing programs with newly established REMs to increase the commitment towards strong mentorship, student support and research success. Additionally, Catalyst 3.0 will integrate post-program mentoring discussions throughout all their programming, and also provide support for mini-conferences at professional disciplinary-specific societies during the academic year to promote participant engagement after the culmination of REM summer research programs.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.

对STEM指导的研究表明，积极的指导经验对STEM领域的新兴研究人员的成功产生了重大影响。该项目着重于制定和实施在指导（REM）计划的研究经验中专门提高STEM指导的策略。尽管REM计划在为参与者提供独特人口统计学的参与者方面非常成功，但要求PIS的研究经验（REM）PIS制定和实施指导计划，而无需在如何成为有效导师的情况下进行任何培训或支持。为了支持REM计划中的有效指导，建立了指导催化剂。指导催化剂的总体使命是催化程序化变化，从而通过建立围绕强大的指导，学生支持和研究成功的实践社区来积极影响导师和学生/老师的指导者。持续指导的REM模型用于指导主动性的发展。指导催化剂3.0项目的四个总体组成部分是1）提供REM指导培训； 2）建立和维护REM社区的实践； 3）在特定于学科的专业会议上发展REM迷你会议； 4）开发程序后指导资源。为了实现这些目标，REM Catalyst Initiative 3.0将继续实施8小时的在线进入指导研讨会，举办年度REM PI会议，同时还建立了围绕有效的后编程指导的其他节目。在在线研讨会上，导师将聚集在一起讨论指导主题，同时还建立了强大的REM导师社区。以虚拟研讨会的高潮，导师将制定指导理念和后图指导计划。这些理念和计划将通过在线平台与REM社区共享，并通过在国家会议和同行评审出版物上的演讲更广泛地分享。 REM导师还将被邀请参加一年一度的为期两天的REM指导会议，其中包括如何在其家庭机构实施导师培训以及共享每个独特的REM计划使用的最佳实践。这些活动促进了继续建立一个强大的实践社区，该社区将长期存在的计划与新成立的REMS汇集在一起​​，以增加对强大的指导，学生支持和研究成功的承诺。此外，Catalyst 3.0将在其所有编程中整合程序后的指导讨论，并在学年期间为专业纪律特定社会的迷你会议提供支持，以在REM夏季研究计划的高潮之后促进参与者的参与。该奖项颁发了NSF的法定任务，反映了NSF的法定范围，并通过评估范围进行了评估，该奖项是通过评估范围来进行评估的。
