CCF SCIENCE EDUCATION INITIATIVE

拟议的CCF科学教育倡议计划旨在 提高大学预科科学教育的质量， 有兴趣并准备进入大学的弱势学生群体 并从事生物医学/行为科学的职业。目标为 如下所示： 1.增加弱势学生的机会， 教师（相同）获得访问和动手接触到广泛的 在生物医学研究环境中的发现范围。 2.为了增加研究科学家影响 克利夫兰公立学校的科学教育内容，包括 具有挑战性的努力，如课堂教学和示范， 专业（教师）发展委员会的工作，科学公正的判断， 或合作开发创新的教学技术。 3.增加所有利益攸关方（学生、家长、 教师和雇主）参加协作学习论坛 旨在加强对种族、阶级和性别障碍的理解， 以及关键技能和当前的科学研究问题。每个论坛 将制定具体的学习目标铭记，使用前， 测试和测试后作业。 该方案的核心组成部分是： 1.一个单独构建的，动手的夏季研究经验， 学生和教师在CCF实验室，在导师的指导下， 研究科学家 2.教师和学生的教育充实活动 在整个夏季会议每周和季度通过学术 学年 该计划将为克利夫兰诊所基金会提供机会 研究科学家和临床医生分享他们的工作， 在发展和实施科学方面的重要作用 社区教育。克利夫兰诊所有资源， 致力于实现这些目标。

The proposed CCF Science Education Initiative Program is designed to improve the quality of pre-college science education and to increase the pool of disadvantaged students interested and prepared to enter college and pursue a career in biomedical/behavioral sciences. Objectives are as follows: 1. To increase the opportunities for under disadvantaged students and teachers (of same) to gain access and hands-on exposure to the broad spectrum of discoveries in a biomedical research environment. 2. To increase the opportunities for research scientists to influence the content of science education in Cleveland Public Schools, including such challenging endeavors as classroom teaching and demonstrations, professional (teacher) development committee work, science fair judging, or the collaborative development of innovative teaching techniques. 3. To increase the opportunities for all stakeholders (students, parents, teachers and employers) to participate in collaborative learning forums designed to enhance understanding of race, class and gender barriers, as well as critical skills and current scientific research issues. Each forum will be developed with specific learning objectives in mind, using pre- test and post-test assignments. The core components of the program are: 1. An individually constructed, hands-on summer research experience for students and teachers in a CCF laboratory, under the mentorship of a research scientist. 2. Educational enrichment activities for teachers and students scheduled weekly throughout the summer session and quarterly through the academic school year. This program will provide an opportunity for Cleveland Clinic Foundation research scientists and clinicians to share their work and to play a significant role in the development and implementation of science education in the community. The Cleveland Clinic has the resources and commitment to accomplish these goals.
