DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This Phase I and II application is designed to create and implement programs that better educate students regarding science concepts, the scientific inquiry process, and related careers. The Center of Excellence for Research, Teaching, and Learning (CERTL) at Wake Forest University Health Sciences (WFUHS), in partnership with the Winston-Salem Forsyth County Schools (WS/FCS), SciWorks (science center and environmental park for Forsyth County), and the WFUHS General Clinical Research Center (GCRC), seeks support for a project to address the following objectives: Create inquiry-based lesson plans for elementary, middle, and high school classrooms that engage students in a deeper understanding of the relationship between classroom science, research science, clinical research, and the health of the general public; Provide focused professional development activities for K-12 teachers to effectively deliver inquiry-based lessons to K-12 students that deepen the understanding of the processes of scientific inquiry and its relationship to bench research, clinical research, and the health of the general public. The proposed project, entitled Research, Education, And Linking Science Careers: REAL Science Careers, is designed to achieve the objectives described above through one or more of these specific aims: Professional development for teachers in an inquiry-based methodology, Problem-Based Learning (PBL), designed to increase student understanding of scientific inquiry and to integrate science topics that currently not addressed in the standard course of study; Instructional material development to support inquiry-based lessons plans in the PBL methodology; Assisted classroom implementation of the PBL materials created for this project; Development of exhibits at SciWorks featuring current research on healthy lifestyle choices accompanied by traveling kiosks of each exhibit for schools and community display; An evaluation design to support systematic collection of data regarding the impact of inquiry-based instruction on a) students' knowledge and attitudes about science concepts, scientific inquiry, and the translation of these topics to the overall health of the general public. Phases I and II will serve 150 local teachers and approximately 13,500 students. Phase II will serve an additional 75 teachers and approximately 7,500 students outside of the funded area. Dissemination activities are expected to occur regionally, throughout the state, and nationally as described for this phase.

描述(由申请者提供)：这个第一阶段和第二阶段的申请旨在创建和实施更好地教育学生关于科学概念、科学探究过程和相关职业的计划。维克森林大学健康科学(WFUHS)研究、教学和学习英才中心(CERTL)与温斯顿-塞勒姆福赛斯县学校(WS/FCS)、SciWorks(福赛斯县科学中心和环境公园)和WFUHS综合临床研究中心(GCRC)合作，寻求对一个项目的支持，以解决以下目标：为小学、中学和高中课堂创建探究式教学计划，使学生更深入地理解课堂科学、研究科学、临床研究和普通公众健康之间的关系；为K-12教师提供有针对性的专业发展活动，有效地向K-12学生提供基于探究的课程，加深对科学探究过程及其与实验室研究、临床研究和普通公众健康的关系的理解。拟议的项目题为“研究、教育和联系科学职业：真正的科学职业”，旨在通过以下一个或多个具体目标实现上述目标：以探究为基础的方法为教师提供专业发展，以问题为基础的学习(PBL)，旨在增加学生对科学探究的理解，并整合目前在标准学习课程中未涉及的科学主题；编写教学材料，以支持PBL方法中的基于探究的课程计划；协助课堂实施为该项目创建的PBL材料；在Science Works上开发展览，展示当前关于健康生活方式选择的研究，同时为学校和社区展示每个展览的巡回展台；一种评估设计，以支持系统地收集关于以探究为基础的教学对a)学生关于科学概念、科学探究的知识和态度的影响的数据，以及将这些主题转化为公众整体健康的数据。第一阶段和第二阶段将为150名本地教师和大约13,500名学生提供服务。第二阶段将为资助地区以外的另外75名教师和大约7500名学生提供服务。传播活动预计将在区域、全州和全国范围内进行，如本阶段所述。
