DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI), in collaboration with the Hall of Health, a hands-on health museum, proposes a two year, Phase II SEPA project entitled Health and Biomedical Science for a Diverse Community. The purpose of this project is to disseminate (1) "Your Genes and Your Choices," a unique, interactive exhibit on social and genetic factors in health, and (2) a 4th and 5th grade health and biomedical science curriculum. The exhibit and curriculum were developed during Phase I. "Your Genes and Your Choices, "which has eight interactive stations and has been piloted at the Hall of Health, is designed for small science museums and health education centers. It will travel to four venues nationwide during Phase II and remain available to other venues after the grant ends. The innovative, activity based curriculum consists of eight instructional units that introduce students to scientific concepts and investigation in the context of the study of diseases and health conditions that disproportionately affect minority populations. The topics are: Fourth Grade: Unit 1: Nutrition: Balance and Imbalance (Obesity); Unit 2. Traumatic Brain Injuries; Unit 3. Infectious Diseases and Immunity; Unit 4. Environmental Toxics: Poisoning Prevention. Fifth Grade: Unit 1. Nutrition: Diabetes; Unit 2. Asthma and Lung Disease; Unit 3. Heart Disease; and Unit 4. Sickle Cell Anemia and Genetics. Each unit consists of five one hour lessons. The curriculum was piloted during Phase I, both in the classroom and in an after school science club, at two elementary schools serving predominantly minority children in Oakland, California. Now we propose to: (1) disseminate the curriculum via science clubs to ten elementary schools in Oakland and Berkeley; (2) offer a series of educator workshops to enhance the skills of teachers and after school personnel to teach scientific investigation and to incorporate the latest findings in biomedical science across the curriculum; and (3) hold family science festivals at each participating school to introduce parents to the topics of the science clubs. The festivals will include hands-on activities, talks by CHORI researchers, and focused discussions with healthcare providers on issues relating to minority health. This project involves clinical as well as basic science investigators, healthcare providers, teachers and health educators, high school and college students, and faculty from San Francisco State University and the University of California at Berkeley. The ultimate goals are to make science interesting and relevant to children who come from ethnically diverse, low income environments; to help them meet state and national objectives for learning in health, science, and scientific inquiry; to help them and their parents understand the relationship between science and health; and to foster their interest in science, so that they may consider future careers related to biomedical science. All project activities will be assessed through formative and summative evaluation. The science clubs will remain in place at the ten participating schools after Phase II funding ends, and the curriculum and evaluation tools will be posted on the internet, and thereby available to others.

描述（由申请人提供）：儿童医院奥克兰研究所（CHORI），与健康大厅，一个动手的健康博物馆合作，提出了一个为期两年的第二阶段SEPA项目，题为健康和生物医学科学的多样化社区。该项目的目的是传播（1）“你的基因和你的选择”，这是一个关于健康中的社会和遗传因素的独特互动展览，以及（2）四年级和五年级的健康和生物医学科学课程。展览和课程是在第一阶段编制的。“你的基因和你的选择”有八个互动站，已在健康馆试行，专为小型科学博物馆和健康教育中心设计。它将在第二阶段期间前往全国四个场馆，并在赠款结束后继续提供给其他场馆。创新的，基于活动的课程包括八个教学单元，向学生介绍科学概念和调查的疾病和健康状况的研究，不成比例地影响少数民族人口的背景下。主题是：四年级：第一单元：营养：平衡和不平衡（肥胖）;第二单元。创伤性脑损伤;第3单元。传染病和免疫;第4单元。环境毒物：预防中毒。五年级：第一单元。营养：糖尿病;第2单元。哮喘和肺部疾病;第3单元。心脏病;第四单元。镰状细胞贫血与遗传学每个单元包括五个一小时的课程。该课程在第一阶段进行了试点，既在课堂上，也在课后科学俱乐部，在两所小学服务主要是少数民族儿童在奥克兰，加州。现在我们建议：（1）通过科学俱乐部向奥克兰和伯克利的10所小学传播课程;（2）提供一系列教育工作者讲习班，以提高教师和课后人员教授科学调查的技能，并将生物医学科学的最新发现纳入整个课程;及（3）在每所参与计划的学校举办家庭科学节，向家长介绍科学会的主题。这些节日将包括实践活动，CHORI研究人员的讲座，以及与医疗保健提供者就少数民族健康问题进行的重点讨论。该项目涉及临床和基础科学调查人员，医疗保健提供者，教师和健康教育工作者，高中和大学生，以及来自旧金山弗朗西斯科州立大学和伯克利分校的加州大学的教师。最终目标是使科学有趣和相关的儿童来自种族多样，低收入的环境;帮助他们满足国家和国家的健康，科学和科学探究的学习目标;帮助他们和他们的父母了解科学与健康之间的关系;并培养他们对科学的兴趣，使他们可以考虑与生物医学科学相关的未来职业。将通过形成性和总结性评价对所有项目活动进行评估。第二阶段资助结束后，科学俱乐部将在十所参与学校继续存在，课程和评估工具将在互联网上公布，从而向其他人提供。
