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 弱势高中生的群体，他们有动力和 为进入大学并从事生物医学职业做好学术准备 研究和医疗行业。SAP还将瞄准正在服务的K-12 以及在(或计划在)具有 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，他们将担任 导师。学生们将获得有意义的个性化实践 以实验室为基础的研究经验，目的是传达到 他们认为科学是有趣的，没有威胁，所以他们会 被刺激去参加更多的科学课程。类似的研究经历 将提供给教师更新和提高他们的技术 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。 暑期和暑期为师生举办的丰富活动 学年。在暑期结束时，参与者将进行口头演讲 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 工作场所和自己取得成功的能力。学生们将成为 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。教师将在设计过程中得到帮助 供课堂使用的简单的现代实验室实验。服务前 将在暑期和暑期为教师提供研究经验 学年。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 招收弱势学生作讲座/示范及 为接下来的夏天招募参与者。的长远目标 该计划是为了在K-12教师和莱特州之间建立联系 生物医学研究人员。 来自莱特州立大学和私营部门的科学家将担任 榜样，并将与学生讨论职业道路、要求和 机遇。将努力让家长参与该计划，因为 越多越好。将对参与者进行后续调查 每隔三个月公布一次，以记录和衡量 萨普。
