ONE-DA - Online Neuroscience Education about Drug Addiction

描述（由申请人提供）：华盛顿大学的护理学院，生物系和教育外展正在与普吉特海湾教育服务区合作开发关于药物成瘾的在线神经科学教育（ONE-DA）项目。拟议的项目将汇集项目伙伴的专门知识，以：1。为高中生开发一门综合性的可持续大学水平的在线生物学课程，重点是成瘾和药物滥用的生物学; 2.创造一个同伴专业发展的经验，包括一个专业的学习社区，以产生一个干部的高中教师领导与成瘾生物学的专业知识; 3.评估在线课程和专业发展的有效性;以及4.传播项目材料和模型。全国各地的高中都在努力寻找提高学生对数学和科学兴趣的方法，以更好地为学生接受中学后教育和科学职业做好准备。这一目标，再加上需要教学生有关药物滥用的科学，打开了一个高中生物课程的可能性，重点是成瘾和药物滥用。ONE-DA项目将设计、试点和评估在线BIOL 100“高中大学”课程，该课程将允许高中学生参加大学课程并获得大学学分，同时由高中教师在舒适的学校环境中授课。生物学100-成瘾生物学课程将：“增加学生对药物滥用和成瘾的神经生物学的知识和理解;“影响学生对成瘾作为生物大脑疾病的看法;”增加学生的科学素养和对研究过程的理解;以及“拓宽学生在生命科学相关领域的职业意识，特别是与成瘾和药物滥用有关的领域。教师专业发展经验将：“增加教师对成瘾生物学的知识;“增加高中教师成功教授大学生物学课程的能力和信心，重点是药物滥用和成瘾科学。该项目将为50名高中教师和大约2 600名高中学生提供服务，并解决紧迫的教育需求。它将由一个内容问题专家和教育工作者团队开发和实施，他们的集体经验和可用资源将允许在成瘾科学方面提供独特和可持续的教育体验。将对项目的模式和可交付成果进行广泛评价，供教育界使用，并在调查期结束后在自我维持的基础上加以执行。 公共卫生相关性：关于药物成瘾的在线神经科学教育（ONE-DA）项目汇集了内容专家和教育工作者，以开发关于成瘾科学的独特和可持续的教育体验，将为50名教师和约2，600名高中生提供服务。通过ONE-DA合作伙伴将开发，高中学生，一个全面的可持续的大学水平的在线生物学课程，重点是成瘾和药物滥用的生物学，并创建一个同伴的专业发展经验，包括一个专业的学习社区，以产生一个干部的高中教师领导与成瘾生物学的专业知识。该项目的目的是增加学生和教师对药物滥用和成瘾的神经生物学的了解，并加深他们对研究过程的理解。通过ONE-DA，高中生可以参加大学课程，并在舒适的学校环境中获得大学学分。将对项目的模式和可交付成果进行广泛评价，供教育界使用，并在调查期结束后在自我维持的基础上加以执行。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Washington's School of Nursing, Biology Department, and Educational Outreach are collaborating with the Puget Sound Educational Service District in the development of the Online Neuroscience Education about Drug Addiction (ONE-DA) project. The proposed project will bring together expertise from project partners to: 1. develop, for high school students, a comprehensive sustainable university level online biology course that focuses on the biology of addiction and drug abuse; 2. create a companion professional development experience, including a professional learning community, to produce a cadre of high school teacher leaders with expertise in addiction biology; 3. evaluate the effectiveness of the online course and professional development; and 4. disseminate the project materials and models. High schools across the nation are striving to find ways to increase student interest in mathematics and science as a way to better prepare students for post secondary education and scientific careers. This goal, coupled with the need to teach students about the science of drug abuse, opens the possibility for a high school biology course with a focus on addiction and drug abuse. The ONE-DA project will design, pilot and evaluate an online BIOL 100 "college in the high school" course that will allow high school students to enroll in a university level course and earn university credits while being taught by their high school teachers in the supportive comfort of the school environment. Biology 100-Biology of Addiction course will: "increase student knowledge and understanding of the neurobiology of drug abuse and addiction; "influence students' perception of addiction as a biological brain disorder;" increase students' science literacy and understanding of research processes; and "broaden students' occupational awareness in life science related fields, especially relating to addiction and drug abuse. The teacher professional development experience will: " increase teachers' knowledge of the biology of addiction; and " increase high school teachers' abilities and confidence to successfully teach a university level biology course with a focus on the science of drug abuse and addiction. The project will serve 50 high school teachers and approximately 2,600 high school students and address urgent educational needs. It will be developed and implemented by a team of content matter experts and educators whose collective experience and the resources available to them will allow for a unique and sustainable educational experience on the science of addiction. The projects' model and deliverables will be extensively evaluated and will be available for use by the education community and implemented on a self-sustaining basis beyond the finding period.
