DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): In January 2006, the Dolan DNA Learning Center launched its SEPA Phase I project: Inside Cancer, a media-rich internet site that examines the molecular genetic basis of cancer. We now propose a Phase II Project, which will employ a six-part strategy to broadly disseminate the site and evaluate its use as a resource in high school biology and health education. a) A partnership will disseminate the site to 800 secondary science teachers at one-day workshop held at 20 sites nationwide. This cost-effective program will focus on key concepts and relevant teaching standards, and also provide a dedicated base for conducting second-round training and evaluation activities. b) An online Teacher Center will allow teachers to develop custom multimedia lessons based on Inside Cancer materials. Key features will be a Concept Matrix, Lesson Exchange, and Atomizer, which will match content with teaching standards, facilitate a community approach to lesson plan development, and provide a searchable interface of over 3,000 multimedia content "atoms." c) Fellowships will allow three lead faculty to work directly with DNALC staff to develop the Teacher Center and model lesson plans (DNALC Fellows). Eighty workshop alumni will serve as Regional Fellows and receive stipends to conduct second-round training activities reaching 640 additional teachers. d) An annual review will assess fidelity to project objectives and analyze site logs to detect patterns of use. An online survey of 1,500 Inside Cancer users annually will assess differences in site use among teachers, students, science and medical professionals, and the general public. e) A longitudinal evaluation of 1,440 participants in workshops and second-round activities will gauge how teachers use Inside Cancer and the Teacher Center, and how their teaching behavior changes over time. f) A controlled study will compare attitudinal and learning effects among 280 high school students - half of whom use Inside Cancer in their classes and half who don't. Biology and health classes will be selected from a single school district that reflects the ethnic and racial distribution of the U.S. population.

描述（由申请人提供）：2006年1月，多兰DNA学习中心启动了SEPA第一阶段项目：癌症内部，一个媒体丰富的互联网网站，研究癌症的分子遗传基础。我们现在提出了一个第二阶段的项目，这将采用一个由六部分组成的战略，广泛传播该网站，并评估其使用作为高中生物和健康教育的资源。（a）一个伙伴关系将在全国20个地点举办的为期一天的讲习班上向800名中学科学教师宣传该网站。这一具有成本效益的方案将侧重于关键概念和相关教学标准，并为开展第二轮培训和评估活动提供专门基地。B）一个在线教师中心将允许教师开发基于内部癌症材料的定制多媒体课程。主要功能将是概念矩阵、课程交换和原子化器，这将使内容与教学标准相匹配，促进社区方法来制定课程计划，并提供一个由3,000多个多媒体内容“原子”组成的可搜索界面。“c）奖学金将使三名主要教员直接与DNALC工作人员合作，开发教师中心和示范教案（DNALC研究员）。80名讲习班毕业生将担任区域研究员，领取津贴，开展第二轮培训活动，再培训640名教师。d）年度审查将评估项目目标的忠实性，并分析网站日志以发现使用模式。每年对1,500名癌症内部用户进行的在线调查将评估教师、学生、科学和医疗专业人员以及公众在网站使用方面的差异。e）对1，440名参与研讨会和第二轮活动的教师进行纵向评估，以了解他们如何使用Inside Cancer和教师中心，以及他们的教学行为如何随着时间的推移而变化。f）一项对照研究将比较280名高中生的态度和学习效果-其中一半在课堂上使用Inside Cancer，另一半则没有。生物和健康课程将从反映美国人口种族和种族分布的单一学区中选择。
