PROJECT SUMMARY The U-RISE program at the University of Puerto Rico Cayey (UPR-C) provides research training to i) broaden exposure to biomedical research careers, ii) strengthen science identity, and iii) enhance scientific information literacy, learning, research, and quantitative and computational skills of undergraduate Hispanic students at UPR-C. The U-RISE program will directly impact 24 undergraduate students through a wide range of activities. Five program components have been designed employing evidence-based approaches to provide training to undergraduate students: Research Seminars and Workshops (RSW), Learning and Research Skills (LRS), Undergraduate Research Experiences (URE), Quantitative and Computational skills (QCS), and Evidence- Based Teaching and Mentoring (EBT/EBM). The evaluation of each component will be monitored by an external evaluator working with the activity coordinators, program directors, and an Advisory Committee. In the RSW component, visiting alumni scientists will serve as role models and offer seminars and workshops to all science students at UPR-C to broaden their exposure to biomedical research careers and strengthen their science identity. In the LRS component, 12 sophomore college students will start engaging in research by participating in scientific literature, learning, and laboratory research activities. In the URE component, the trainees will engage more extensively in research by participating in an off-campus research project during the summer (24 students) and an on-campus research experience during the academic year. In the QCS component, the junior/senior students will enhance their skills to analyze and present numerical data, reduce problem complexity, think in terms of computational algorithmics, and automate tasks computationally within the natural sciences. The LRS and QCS educational activities use collaborative learning to accommodate differences in preparation among trainees. The EBT/EBM component will facilitate faculty training in evidence-based teaching and mentoring using Blended Learning Modules in EBT and Lesson Study cycles. In the EBT/EBM component, the fundamental aspects of multiple teaching and learning areas will be explored and implemented over one year. This long-term faculty training program will provide the sustained and lasting efforts required for faculty to change their teaching practices. These five integrated program components of the U-RISE at UPR-Cayey are designed to facilitate the completion of baccalaureate degrees and the transition into and completion of biomedical research-focused higher degree programs.

项目摘要 波多黎各大学卡伊（UPR-C）的U-RISE计划提供研究培训，以i）扩大 接触生物医学研究职业，ii）加强科学身份，iii）加强科学信息 识字，学习，研究，定量和计算能力的本科西班牙裔学生在 UPR-C. U-RISE计划将通过广泛的活动直接影响24名本科生。 采用循证方法设计了五个方案组成部分，为以下人员提供培训： 本科生：研究研讨会和讲习班（RSW），学习和研究技能（LRS）， 本科研究经验（URE），定量和计算技能（QCS），和证据- 基于教学和指导（EBT/EBM）。每个组成部分的评价将由外部监测 评估员与活动协调员、项目主管和咨询委员会合作。在RSW 作为一个组成部分，访问校友科学家将作为榜样，并提供研讨会和讲习班，以所有科学 UPR-C的学生扩大了他们对生物医学研究职业的接触，并加强了他们的科学 身份在LRS部分，12名大二学生将开始参与研究， 在科学文献、学习和实验室研究活动中。在URE组件中，学员将 通过参加暑期校外研究项目，更广泛地参与研究（24 学生）和一个在校园内的研究经验在学年。在QCS组件中， 初中/高中学生将提高他们的技能，分析和提出数字数据，降低问题的复杂性， 从计算算法的角度思考，并在自然科学中通过计算自动化任务。 LRS和QCS教育活动使用协作学习来适应准备的差异 在受训者中。EBT/EBM部分将促进教师循证教学培训， 在EBT和课程研究周期中使用混合学习模块进行指导。在EBT/EBM组件中， 多个教学领域的基本方面将在一年内进行探索和实施。 这个长期的教师培训计划将为教师变革所需的持续和持久的努力 他们的教学实践。UPR-Cayey的U-RISE的这五个集成程序组件的设计 促进完成学士学位和过渡到和完成生物医学 以研究为重点的高等学位课程。
