In a previous SEPA grant, we established a highly successful partnership between the UCSD School of Medicine and Helix High School, a San Diego urban school. We now propose to educate Helix students and their families about the value of clinical research as an approach to address the low enrollment of minorities in clinical research studies and clinical trials; previous studies have shown that a lack of knowledge and appreciation of clinical research is a major barrier for minority groups to participate in clinical studies. The Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) Program assists educationally-disadvantaged high school students achieve a college education. Since its inception in San Diego over 20 years ago,it has been highly successful, and has been disseminated to schools throughout the country. It uses an interactive format to teach skills, concentrating on reading, writing, speaking, and inquiry; the content of the curriculum is left largely to the discretion of the teacher. We hypothesize that the AVID program is an ideal opportunity to educate students about clinical research, and simultaneously increase their interest in health-related careers. Phase I of the project will have four major components. First, we will integrate clinical research topics into the AVID curriculum. Seven school of medicine faculty, each with different expertise and each actively involved in clinical research, will provide content resumes on various clinical research topics. The resumes will be converted to AVID class lesson plans by two experienced Helix teachers. The lessons will be taught to about 40 eleventh grade students each year. Second, the AVID students will spend a day in the UCSD General Clinical Research Center and the Clinical Trials Center, and will actively participate in several ongoing research protocols. ' Third, about 10 students will engage in a clinical research internship each summer; And fourth, the summer intern students will educate their families and friends about clinical research through evening seminars. A control group at a well-matched sister high school will receive the normal AVID curriculum. Program effectiveness will be evaluated by pre- and post- intervention tests and questionnaires that evaluate knowledge about clinical research and attitudes towards clinical research. During Phase II,.the prograrh will be disseminated initially to high schools in the Southern California AVID Region IX area, which includes Imperial, Orange, and San Diego Counties, and later to AVID schools nationwide; Dissemination will occur via an on-line mechanism, monthly workshops, and an annual summer conference.

在之前的 SEPA 拨款中，我们与 UCSD 学校建立了非常成功的合作伙伴关系 医学院和螺旋高中，圣地亚哥城市学校。我们现在建议教育Helix 学生及其家人了解临床研究作为解决低收入问题的方法的价值 少数群体参与临床研究和临床试验；先前的研究表明 缺乏对临床研究的了解和欣赏是少数群体进行临床研究的主要障碍 参与临床研究。通过个人决心进步 (AVID) 计划可提供帮助 教育弱势高中生接受大学教育。自成立以来 圣地亚哥20多年前就取得了巨大成功，并已在学校中推广 全国各地。它使用互动形式来教授技能，专注于阅读、写作、 说话、询问；课程内容主要由教师自行决定。我们 假设 AVID 项目是教育学生临床研究的理想机会， 同时增加他们对健康相关职业的兴趣。该项目一期将有 四个主要组成部分。首先，我们将把临床研究课题融入到AVID课程中。 七名医学院教师，各自拥有不同的专业知识，并积极参与临床工作 研究，将提供各种临床研究主题的内容简历。简历将是 由两位经验丰富的 Helix 教师将其转换为 AVID 课堂课程计划。课程将教授给 每年约有 40 名十一年级学生。其次，AVID 学生将在 UCSD综合临床研究中心和临床试验中心，并将积极参与 几个正在进行的研究方案。第三，大约10名学生将从事临床研究 每年暑假实习；第四，暑期实习生将教育他们的家人和朋友 通过晚间研讨会了解临床研究。一所匹配的姐妹高中的对照组 将接受正常的 AVID 课程。计划的有效性将通过事前和事后评估 评估临床研究知识和态度的干预测试和问卷 走向临床研究。在第二阶段，该计划将首先分发到以下地区的高中： 南加州 AVID 第九区，包括帝国、奥兰治和圣地亚哥 县，后来到全国的 AVID 学校；传播将通过在线机制进行， 每月一次的研讨会和一年一度的夏季会议。
