The overall goal of Science Apprenticeship Program (SAP) is to increase the pool of disadvantaged high school students who are motivated and academically prepared to enter college and pursue careers in biomedical research and the health professions. SAP will also target K-12 in-service and pre-service teachers who teach (or plan to teach) in schools with a significant number of disadvantaged students. The main component of SAP will be a seven-week summer 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 non-threatening so that they would be stimulated to take more science courses. A similar research experience will be provided to the teachers to update and enhance their technical 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. Through these presentations, students will gain insight about the demands of the work place and their own ability to succeed. Students will be provided instruction to enhance their science background and their problem-solving skills. Teachers will be given assistance in designing simple modern laboratory experiments for classroom use. Pre-service 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 enrollment of disadvantaged students 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 and Wright State biomedical researchers. Scientists from Wright State University and the private sector 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 carried out at three month intervals to document and measure the effectiveness of SAP.

科学学徒计划（SAP）的总体目标是增加 那些有积极性的弱势高中生， 学术准备进入大学，并追求生物医学的职业生涯 研究和卫生专业。SAP还将针对K-12在职人员 和职前教师谁教（或计划教）在学校与 有相当数量的弱势学生。SAP的主要组成部分 将为学生和教师提供为期七周的暑期研究体验 在活跃的生物医学研究人员的监督下， 导师学生将获得有意义的个性化实践 以实验室为基础的研究经验，目的是向 他们认为科学是有趣的，没有威胁，所以他们会 鼓励他们选修更多的科学课程。类似的研究经验 将提供给教师更新和提高他们的技术 知识，使他们能够带来一种兴奋感的课堂。 研究经验将补充额外的科学 在暑期为学生和教师举办丰富活动， 学年。在夏季结束时，与会者将给予口头 并提交书面报告，说明他们所取得的成就。 通过这些演示，学生将深入了解需求 工作场所和他们自己成功的能力。学生将 提供指导，以提高他们的科学背景和他们的 解决问题的能力教师将得到帮助， 简单的现代实验室实验供课堂使用。职前 教师将在夏季和 学年。他们将获得大学学分， 他们的认证计划。导师们将参观拥有大型 招收弱势学生进行讲座/示范， 为接下来的夏天招募参与者。长期目标是 该项目旨在发展K-12教师和赖特州立大学之间的联系 生物医学研究人员。 来自赖特州立大学和私营部门的科学家将作为 榜样，并将与学生讨论职业道路，要求和 机会将努力让家长参与该方案， 尽可能多的。将对参与者进行后续调查 每三个月一次，记录和衡量 SAP.
