DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI), in collaboration with the Small Museum Research Collaborative (SMRC), proposes to create four small bilingual (English and Spanish) exhibitions for national tour to small museums. The exhibitions will focus on current clinical research in nutrition and physical activity and its applications to personal and family wellness. We propose to build four 700-square-foot traveling exhibitions: two identical exhibitions with a focus on nutrition and two identical exhibitions with a focus on physical activity. OMSI's SMRC partners bring the experiences and resources of five geographically and thematically diverse small museums to this project. As the lead institution, OMSI brings over 19 years' experience in creating and touring national exhibitions and in collaborative projects with other museums. Front-end, formative, remedial, and summative evaluation will be conducted with family audiences at OMSI and SMRC sites. To extend the visitor experience, OMSI and SMRC will produce related educational materials and programs including a web site, teachers' guides, small museum staff training, distance-learning programs, and interactive presentations. A SMRC distance-learning network will be created for program dissemination. The project will be developed with the support of local research scientists at the Oregon Health & Science University's (OHSU) General Clinical Research Center (GCRC) and other experts in nutrition and fitness research, health care, and education. The project's audience is family and K-5 school group visitors to small science and children's museums in rural and small urban communities nationwide. Latino families are also a priority audience for the project. Each of the four traveling exhibitions will tour to three venues a year for a minimum of eight years. We conservatively estimate that over two million people will visit the exhibitions during their national tours. This project presents a powerful opportunity to reach museum visitors in rural and underserved communities, to invite families to pursue healthy nutrition and physical activity together, and to present and interpret clinical research findings for diverse audiences.

描述(由申请人提供)： 俄勒冈州科学与工业博物馆(OMSI)与小型博物馆研究合作(SMRC)合作，提议创建四个小型双语(英语和西班牙语)展览，供全国巡回参观小型博物馆。展览将集中在营养和体力活动方面的最新临床研究，以及它在个人和家庭健康方面的应用。我们计划建造四个700平方英尺的巡回展览：两个相同的展览，重点是营养；两个相同的展览，重点是身体活动。OMSI的SMRC合作伙伴将五个地理和主题多样化的小型博物馆的经验和资源带到了这个项目中。作为牵头机构，OMSI在创建和巡回国家展览以及与其他博物馆合作项目方面拥有19年的经验。 将在OMSI和SMRC站点与家庭观众一起进行前端、形成性、补救性和终结性评估。为了扩大游客体验，OMSI和SMRC将制作相关的教育材料和计划，包括网站、教师指南、小型博物馆工作人员培训、远程学习计划和互动演示。将建立一个SMRC远程学习网络，以传播节目。该项目将在俄勒冈健康与科学大学(OHSU)综合临床研究中心(GCRC)的当地研究科学家和其他营养与健身研究、医疗保健和教育专家的支持下开发。 该项目的观众是家庭和K-5学校团体游客，参观全国农村和城市小社区的小型科学和儿童博物馆。拉美裔家庭也是该项目的优先受众。四个巡回展览中的每个都将每年巡回三个场馆，为期至少八年。我们保守估计，在全国巡演期间，将有超过200万人参观展览。这个项目提供了一个强大的机会，可以接触到农村和服务不足社区的博物馆参观者，邀请家庭一起追求健康的营养和体育活动，并为不同的观众介绍和解释临床研究结果。
