项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Developing ICT Research Skills and Institutional Capacity in Kenya This collaboration between the University of Washington (UW) and the University of Nairobi (UoN) aims to help health researchers in Kenya become more effective in their investigations by: training and mentoring researchers in information and communication technology (ICT) knowledge and skills; building the capacity of the University of Nairobi School of Computing and Informatics (UoN SCI) to provide sustainable ICT training and support; and expanding the global scope, range, and number of researchers trained in relevant ICT tools. For each ICT course, 100 students will enroll in the online first tier module, 25 students will take th two tiers of an online module and workshop, and a select number of 10 students will take all three tiers including mentorship. The online modules will also be accessible to a global audience that will enroll 100 international students in each module. There will be 3 courses directed at health researchers on the following ICT topics: 1) Principles and Practice of Research Data Management and Collection, 2) Research Management and Communication Tools, and 3) Introduction to Geographic Information Systems for Health Researchers. Each course will also contain a core course in the form of an online module entitled "Creative Integration of ICT Tools and Technologies for Enhancing Research Design and Implementation." A Training of Trainers course that includes an online module and hands-on workshop will be conducted during the first year to identify and train Kenyan faculty and staff who will subsequently participate as mentors in the ICT courses. The UoN SCI will host all workshops in Nairobi, Kenya and lead the mentorship of projects for individual researchers. UW will help UoN SCI develop an e-learning platform and a website to host e-learning courses and provide ICT support for Kenyan health researchers. The co-led training program will promote technology transfer between UW and UoN and strengthen the link between Kenyan health researchers and local institutional ICT support. By the end of the program, 3 didactic online modules on 3 different ICT topics, plus 1 core ICT topic common to all 3 modules, will be online and made available to Kenyans as well as to a global student audience and to Fogarty programs worldwide. In total, 300 international students and 300 Kenyan students will be trained didactically online, 75 Kenyan researchers and 25 Kenyan faculty and staff members will be taught practical ICT and mentoring skills in hands-on workshops, and 30 Kenyan researchers will be mentored on how to use relevant ICT tools in health research.

描述(由申请人提供)：发展肯尼亚的信息和传播技术研究技能和机构能力华盛顿大学(UW)和内罗毕大学(UON)之间的合作旨在通过以下方式帮助肯尼亚的卫生研究人员提高其研究效率：在信息和通信技术(ICT)知识和技能方面培训和指导研究人员；建设内罗毕大学计算和信息学学院(UON SCI)的能力，以提供可持续的信息和传播技术培训和支持；扩大全球范围、范围和接受相关信息和传播技术工具培训的研究人员数量。对于每个信通技术课程，100名学生将参加在线第一级模块，25名学生将参加在线模块和研讨会的两级，精选的10名学生将参加所有三级课程，包括指导。在线模块也将向全球受众开放，每个模块将招收100名国际学生。将有3门针对卫生研究人员的课程，涉及以下信息和通信技术主题：1)研究数据管理和收集的原理和实践，2)研究管理和通信工具，以及3)卫生研究人员地理信息系统入门。每个课程还将包含一个在线模块形式的核心课程，题为“创造性地整合信通技术工具和技术，以加强研究设计和实施”。第一年将举办培训员培训课程，其中包括一个在线单元和实践讲习班，以确定和培训肯尼亚教职员工，这些教职员工随后将作为导师参加信息和通信技术课程。UON SCI将在肯尼亚内罗毕主办所有讲习班，并领导对个别研究人员的项目指导。UW将帮助UON SCI开发一个电子学习平台和一个网站，以托管电子学习课程，并为肯尼亚卫生研究人员提供ICT支持。联合领导的培训计划将促进密歇根大学和密歇根大学之间的技术转让，并加强肯尼亚卫生研究人员与当地机构ICT支持之间的联系。到方案结束时，关于3个不同信通技术主题的3个在线教学单元，加上所有3个单元共有的1个核心信通技术专题，将在线提供给肯尼亚人以及全球学生受众和世界各地的Fogarty方案。总共有300名国际学生和300名肯尼亚学生将接受在线教学培训，75名肯尼亚研究人员和25名肯尼亚教职员工将在实践讲习班上学习实用信通技术和指导技能，30名肯尼亚研究人员将接受如何在卫生研究中使用相关信通技术工具的指导。
