项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Through Genes, the Environment, and Me: Health and STEM Network (GEMNet), we will develop a model for teaching about type 2 diabetes (t2d) and engaging students in biomedical careers using a cross-disciplinary approach with high school biology, health, and Family and Consumer Science (FACS) teachers. Diabetes is a complex condition that unites science and health concepts, and links these concepts to broader social issues, i.e., environmental influences, health care, scientific research, personal choice, access to resources, diet and exercise, social justice, and public policy. The nature of this complex topic lends itself to multi-disciplinary instruction in which students can benefit from exposure to different aspects of t2d in different high school contexts. This project builds on our successful SEPA-funded project, Genes, the Environment, and Me (GEM). Through GEM, we have developed a strong community of high school science and health teachers primarily in the Yakima Valley, a rural agricultural region in central Washington. Schools in this region serve highly diverse students with high percentages of Hispanic and Native American students, many of whom are from high poverty families with limited English proficiency and low educational attainment levels. These are also populations that experience disproportionately high rates of t2d, which makes this a timely and important topic to integrate into high school curricula. We will build upon our established community of high school teachers in science and health in central Washington and expand our network and curriculum to other communities and disciplines, including teachers in the Seattle School District. GEMNet will produce standards-based curriculum to teach about t2d and related health issues for inclusion in introductory and advanced high school biology, health, and FACS courses. Project components will include: 1) developing and piloting new t2d lessons specific to the different high school courses; 2) providing discipline-specific teacher professional development; 3) evaluating student outcomes following one or more exposures to the curriculum in different classes; and 4) disseminating instructional materials and strategies within our primary teaching community and to other regions of the state and nation.

项目概要通过基因、环境和我：健康和 STEM 网络 (GEMNet)，我们将开发一个模型教授有关 2 型糖尿病 (t2d) 的知识，并利用跨学科的方法让学生从事生物医学职业与高中生物、健康以及家庭和消费者科学 (FACS) 教师合作。糖尿病是一种结合科学和健康概念并将这些概念与更广泛的社会问题联系起来的复杂条件，即环境影响、医疗保健、科学研究、个人选择、资源获取、饮食和锻炼、社会正义和公共政策。这个复杂主题的性质适合多学科学生可以在不同高中接触 t2d 的不同方面并从中受益的教学上下文。该项目建立在 SEPA 资助的成功项目“基因、环境和我”(GEM) 的基础上。通过 GEM，我们主要在以下地区建立了一个强大的高中科学和健康教师社区亚基马谷，华盛顿中部的一个农村农业区。该地区的学校服务高度多样化西班牙裔和美国原住民学生比例很高，其中许多来自高中英语水平有限、受教育程度较低的贫困家庭。这些也是 T2D 发病率极高的人群，这使得这个话题成为一个及时而重要的话题融入高中课程。我们将在中部地区建立的科学与健康高中教师社区的基础上再接再厉。华盛顿，并将我们的网络和课程扩展到其他社区和学科，包括教师在西雅图学区。 GEMNet 将制作基于标准的课程来教授 t2d 及相关内容纳入高中生物学入门和高级生物学、健康和 FACS 课程的健康问题。项目组成部分将包括： 1) 针对不同高中开发和试点新的 t2d 课程课程； 2）提供特定学科的教师专业发展； 3）评估学生的成绩在不同班级接触过一次或多次课程后； 4) 传播教学我们的小学教学社区以及州和国家其他地区的材料和策略。
