HIGH SCHOOL MINORITY STUDENT/TEACHER SCIENCE ENRICHMENT

计划中的大学预科科学丰富计划的总体目标是 增加少数族裔大学预科学生的积极性 在学术上准备好从事生物医学研究和职业生涯 医疗行业。该计划将针对少数族裔高中 任教(或计划)的学生和K-12在职和职前教师 在有大量少数民族学生的学校任教)。这个 该计划的主要组成部分将是为期七周的暑期科学 指导下的学生和教师的研究经验 积极的生物医学研究人员，他们将担任导师。学生们将会 获得基于实验室的有意义的个性化实践研究 体验的目的是向他们传达科学是有趣的 而且不具威胁性，这样他们就会受到刺激，接受更多的科学 课程。类似的暑期研究体验将提供给 教师更新和提高他们的技术和方法 这样他们才能给课堂带来兴奋感。 研究经验将补充额外的科学知识。 暑期学生和教师的充实活动 以及学年。在暑期结束时，参与者将给予 口头陈述并提交书面报告 是在夏天完成的。通过这些演讲，学生们 将深入了解工作场所和自己的需求 成功的能力。将在整个课程中强调强化指导 暑假和学年。将向学生提供指导以 提高他们的生物医学知识和解决问题的能力 技能。教师将得到帮助，设计简单的现代 供课堂使用的实验室实验。职前教师将被 在暑期和学年提供了研究经验。 他们将获得大学学分，这将计入他们的 认证计划。导师们将参观有大量学生的高中 招募少数族裔人士作讲座/示范及招募 为下一个夏天的参与者。世界银行的长期目标 该计划是发展K-12教师之间的联系，高中 学生和莱特州生物医学研究人员。 来自莱特州立大学和私立大学的少数民族生物医学科学家 行业组织将作为榜样，并将与 学生的职业道路、要求和机会。我们将努力 使家长尽可能多地参与到该项目中来。跟进 对参与者的调查将是 程序。每隔三个月，学生将接受关于以下方面的调查 他们对科学的态度，学习成绩， 职业和职业目标和选择。他们会被追踪到 高中，大学，如果资源允许，通过 研究生/专业学校。

The overall goal of the planned precollege science enrichment program is to increase the pool of minority precollege students who are motivated and academically prepared to pursue careers in biomedical research and the health professions. The program will target minority high school students and K-12 inservice and preservice teachers who teach (or plan to teach) in schools with a significant number of minority students. The main component of the program will be a seven-week summer science research experience for students and teachers under the supervision of active biomedical researchers who will act as mentors. The students will receive a meaningful individualized hands-on laboratory-based research experience with the objective of conveying to them that science is fun and nonthreatening so that they would be stimulated to take more science courses. A similar summer research experience will be provided to the teachers to update and enhance their technological and methodological knowledge so that they can bring a sense of excitement to the classroom. The research experiences will be supplemented with additional science enrichment activities for both students and teachers during the summer and the academic year. At the end of the summer, participants will give oral presentations and submit written reports of what they had accomplished during the summer. Through these presentations, students will gain insight about the demands of the work place and their own ability to succeed. Intensive mentoring will be emphasized throughout the summer and the academic year. Students will be provided instruction to enhance their knowledge of biomedical sciences and their problem-solving skills. Teachers will be given assistance in designing simple modern laboratory experiments for classroom use. Preservice teachers will be provided research experiences during the summer and the academic year. They will receive college credits which will count toward their certification program. Mentors will visit high schools with large minority enrollment to give lectures/demonstrations and to recruit participants for the succeeding summer. The long-range goal of the program is to develop linkages between K-12 teachers, high school students and Wright State biomedical researchers. Minority biomedical scientists from Wright State University and private sector organizations will act as role models and will discuss with students career paths, requirements and opportunities. Efforts will be made to involve parents in the program as much as possible. Follow-up surveys of the participants will be an essential component of the program. At three-month intervals, students will be surveyed as to changes in their attitudes toward science, academic performance, professional and career goals and choices. They will be tracked through high school, college and if, resources permit, through graduate/professional schools.
