DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goals of this project are: (1) To create curricula that are adopted by teachers and are used to improve students' understanding of the biology of drug abuse and addiction, and (2) To develop a professional development training model that effectively disseminates the curricula and promotes its adoption by teachers. To accomplish our goals, this project will create three problem-based learning curriculum modules with related instructional resources to model how research-based instructional strategies can be applied to teaching the biology of drug abuse and addiction. During this four- year project, the curricula will be developed, field-tested, and disseminated with built-in formative and summative evaluations. Each curriculum module will use a real-life scenario based on current topics in drug abuse and addiction research. The topics of these three curriculum modules will be: (1) The effects of addiction on behavior, (2) The effects of addiction on homeostasis: drug tolerance and withdrawal, and (3) The effects of drugs on prenatal and postnatal development. These three curriculum modules will integrate resources from the NIDA website with laboratory activities and computer-based resources that can easily be incorporated into a district's existing high school biology curriculum. The curriculum modules will align with New York State's Math, Science and Technology Learning Standards and with the National Science Education Standards. The curriculum modules will be disseminated to over 500 biology teachers throughout New York State through workshops presented by the New York State Biology-Chemistry Professional Development Mentor Network. A comprehensive mixed-methods evaluation will be implemented and will consist of process and outcomes measures, employing both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. We will assess the implementation of the curricula and the impact of the curricula on student content knowledge. Public Health Relevance: The relevance of this project to public health is that students and teachers will have a better understanding of the science of drug abuse and addiction. The project will create and disseminate educational materials to promote understanding of the effects of drug abuse and addiction on behavior, prenatal and postnatal development and drug tolerance and withdrawal. This information will allow students and teachers to become better informed for decisions involving their health.

项目描述（由申请人提供）：本项目的目标是：(1)创建教师采用的课程，并用于提高学生对药物滥用和成瘾生物学的理解；(2)开发一种专业发展培训模式，有效地传播课程并促进教师采用。为了实现我们的目标，本项目将创建三个基于问题的学习课程模块，并提供相关的教学资源，以模拟如何将基于研究的教学策略应用于药物滥用和成瘾生物学的教学。在这个为期四年的项目中，课程的开发、实地测试和传播将内置形成性和总结性评价。每个课程模块将使用基于当前药物滥用和成瘾研究主题的真实场景。这三个课程模块的主题将是：(1)成瘾对行为的影响，(2)成瘾对体内平衡的影响：药物耐受性和戒断，以及(3)药物对产前和产后发育的影响。这三个课程模块将整合NIDA网站上的实验室活动和基于计算机的资源，这些资源可以很容易地整合到一个地区现有的高中生物课程中。课程模块将与纽约州的数学、科学和技术学习标准以及国家科学教育标准保持一致。通过纽约州生物化学专业发展导师网络举办的研讨会，课程模块将分发给纽约州的500多名生物教师。将实施综合综合评价方法，包括过程和结果措施，采用定量和定性方法。我们会评估课程的实施情况，以及课程对学生内容知识的影响。公共卫生相关性：该项目与公共卫生的相关性在于，学生和教师将更好地了解药物滥用和成瘾的科学。该项目将编制和散发教育材料，以促进对药物滥用和吸毒成瘾对行为、产前和产后发育以及药物耐受和戒断的影响的了解。这些信息将使学生和教师对涉及他们健康的决定有更好的了解。
