To achieve a healthy society, America needs both highly trained health professionals and a science-literate public. The development of both begins during K-12 education. Within the NIH, the SEPA program provides the principal means to influence pre-college science education. Our application builds on current infrastructure, which provides ca. 1700 high school students per year, many of them from underrepresented groups, with authentic scientific experiences based on experiment modules that utilize live organisms as biomedical models. Students investigate the impacts of environmental/life-style chemicals on fundamental biological processes. In the process, ca. 20 pre-service teachers per year learn to teach with an inquiry-based approach. Moving forward, the proposed SEPA program will i) engage in-service and pre-service teachers and students with an in-depth introduction to the scientific method and its components that is closely linked to the conduct of the experiment modules. A major focus will involve analytical applications of data science that emerge after aggregating large amounts of data submitted by students to a computational portal and data repository. Complementing this novel emphasis, ii) student experimentation will be placed within a context of science and society, called environmental health civics – a history of environmental chemicals in relation to governmental regulation and chemical toxicity research. Attention will be directed toward environmental justice, particularly issues which effect Milwaukee youth, including lead (Pb) poisoning, through the use of a powerful on-line environmental health mapping program from the EPA. Experiment modules and special student conferences will further develop this area. Both i) and ii) will be fully aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards. In addition, we will iii) provide new ways for early career teachers to implement our program as they transition from pre-service status to mature in-service teachers. Finally, iv) we will transfer our program to an on-line format and partner with other institutions to expand the reach of our pre-service teacher program. Content goals will be merged with our objective to offer large numbers of minority and economically disadvantaged students research experiences with our modules. Our Specific Aims are to 1. Introduce in-service and early career teachers to the principles of data and data science in relation to our environmental health experiment modules. 2. Collaborate with the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, UW-Stevens Point and Carthage College science teacher education programs to certify 100 pre-service teachers in the principles and practice of scientific experimentation and communication. 3. Provide 8,500 high school students with a) experiences in doing data and data science- focused scientific research, and b) an understanding of the importance of chemical toxicology, including a focus on environmental justice. 4. Work with the Milwaukee Public School System and other regional schools to provide large numbers of low income and underrepresented minority students with research experiences. 5. Develop a robust on-line version of our program. 6. Conduct a thorough evaluation of the entire project.

为了实现健康的社会，美国需要训练有素的卫生专业人员和科学识别 民众。两者的发展始于K-12教育。在NIH中，SEPA计划提供 主要的意思是影响大学前科学教育。我们的应用程序建立在当前的基础架构上， 提供CA。每年有1700名高中生，其中许多来自代表性不足的团体， 基于实验模块的真实科学经验，该实验模块利用活生物体作为生物医学模型。 学生研究环境/生活方式化学物质对基本生物学过程的影响。在 该过程，大约。每年有20名职前教师学习以基于询问的方法教书。前进， 拟议的SEPA计划将i）与服务前的老师和学生一起参与深度 科学方法及其组件的简介与实验的行为密切相关 模块。主要重点将涉及数据科学的分析应用，这些数据科学在汇总大量后会出现 学生向计算门户和数据存储库提交的数据量。补充这本小说 重点，ii）学生实验将被放置在科学和社会的背景下，称为环境 卫生公民 - 与政府法规和化学毒性有关的环境化学物质史 研究。注意将针对环境正义，尤其是影响密尔沃基的问题 通过使用强大的在线环境健康制图，包括铅（PB）中毒在内的青年中毒 EPA的程序。实验模块和特殊的学生会议将进一步发展该领域。 i）和ii）将完全与下一代科学标准完全一致。此外，我们将iii）提供 早期职业老师从职前地位过渡到成熟的新方法 在职教师。最后，iv）我们将把程序转移到在线格式，并与其他合作 扩大我们服务前教师计划的范围的机构。内容目标将与我们合并 目的提供大量少数族裔和经济不利的学生研究经验 我们的模块。我们的具体目的是1。将服务和早期职业老师介绍 与我们的环境健康实验模块有关的数据和数据科学。 2。与 威斯康星大学 - 米尔沃基大学，大学斯特文斯角和迦太基学院科学老师教育 在科学实验的原则和实践中认证100位职前教师的计划 沟通。 3。为8,500名高中生提供a）进行数据和数据科学的经验 - 重点科学研究，b）了解化学毒理学的重要性，包括重点 关于环境正义。 4。与密尔沃基公立学校系统和其他区域学校一起工作 提供大量的低收入和代表性不足的少数族裔学生。 5。 开发我们程序的强大在线版本。 6.对整个项目进行彻底评估。
