项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Boston University School of Medicine's new SEPA project, entitled "CityLab and Urban Squash: A New Pathway to Achieve STEM Success," specifically addresses the SMRB's imperative that "NIH's pre-college STEM activities need a rejuvenated integrated focus on biomedical workforce preparedness with special considerations for under-represented minorities." Approximately one-third of CityLab's participants are under- represented minority (URM) students, but we now have a unique opportunity to build a program that will reach many URM students and position them for undergraduate STEM success. We have partnered with urban squash education organizations in Boston (SquashBusters) and New York (CitySquash and StreetSquash) that recruit URM/low SES students to participate in afterschool squash training and academic enrichment programs. We have also partnered with the National Urban Squash and Education Association (NUSEA) to disseminate the new program- first from Boston to New York and later through its national network of affiliated squash education programs. In order to bring this project to fruition, Boston University is joining
forces with Fordham University in New York. Fordham is home to CitySquash so these organizations provide an ideal base for the New York activities. The proposed project will enable us to demonstrate feasibility and replicability within the 5 year scope of this grant. Our shared vision is to develop a national model for informal precollege biomedical science education that can be infused into a myriad of similar athletic/academic enrichment programs. The squash education movement for urban youth has been highly successful in enrolling program graduates in college. Since the academic offerings of the squash education programs focus on English Language Arts and Mathematics, their students struggle with science and rarely recognize the tremendous opportunities for long- term employment in STEM fields. This project will bring CityLab's resources to local squash programs in a coordinated and sustained engagement to introduce students to STEM, specifically the biomedical sciences. Together with the urban squash centers, we will build upon the hands-on life science experiences developed and widely disseminated by CityLab to create engaging laboratory-based experiences involving athletics and physiology. The specific aims of the proposed project are: (1) to develop, implement, and evaluate a new partnership model for recruiting URM/low SES students and inspiring them to pursue careers in STEM and (2) to examine changes in the science learner identities (SLI) of the students who participate in this program and establish this metric as a marker for continued engagement in STEM. With the involvement of the two urban research universities, three local squash education programs, and NUSEA, we see this new SEPA initiative as a unique way to pilot, refine, and disseminate an after- school/informal science education program that can have a significant impact on the nation's production of talented STEM graduates from URM/low SES backgrounds.
描述(由申请人提供):波士顿大学医学院的新SEPA项目,题为“CityLab和Urban Squash:实现STEM成功的新途径”,具体解决了SMRB的当务之急,即“NIH的大学预科STEM活动需要重新焕发活力,综合关注生物医学劳动力准备,特别考虑代表性不足的少数民族。“大约三分之一的CityLab的参与者是代表性不足的少数民族(URM)学生,但我们现在有一个独特的机会,建立一个计划,将达到许多URM学生和定位他们的本科STEM成功。我们已经与城市壁球教育组织在波士顿(壁球克星)和纽约(城市壁球和街头壁球)招募URM/低SES学生参加课后壁球培训和学术充实计划。我们还与全国城市壁球和教育协会(NUSEA)合作,传播新的计划-首先从波士顿到纽约,后来通过其全国网络的附属壁球教育计划。为了使这个项目取得成果,波士顿大学正在加入
与纽约的福德姆大学合作。福德姆是城市壁球的主场,所以这些组织为纽约的活动提供了一个理想的基地。拟议的项目将使我们能够在5年的赠款范围内证明可行性和可复制性。我们的共同愿景是开发一个非正式的大学前生物医学科学教育的国家模式,可以注入到无数类似的体育/学术充实计划。城市青年的壁球教育运动在大学招收项目毕业生方面非常成功。由于壁球教育项目的学术课程侧重于英语语言艺术和数学,他们的学生在科学方面苦苦挣扎,很少认识到在干领域长期就业的巨大机会。该项目将把CityLab的资源带到当地的壁球项目中,以协调和持续的方式向学生介绍STEM,特别是生物医学科学。与城市壁球中心一起,我们将建立在CityLab开发和广泛传播的实践生命科学经验的基础上,创造涉及体育和生理学的引人入胜的实验室体验。拟议项目的具体目标是:(1)开发,实施和评估一种新的合作伙伴关系模式,用于招募URM/低SES学生,并激励他们追求STEM职业生涯;(2)检查参加该计划的学生的科学学习者身份(SLI)的变化,并将此指标作为继续参与STEM的标志。在两所城市研究型大学、三个当地壁球教育项目和NUSEA的参与下,我们认为这一新的SEPA倡议是一种独特的方式,可以试点、完善和传播课后/非正式科学教育项目,对国家培养URM/低SES背景的STEM毕业生产生重大影响。
