New York Hall of Science Career Ladder Replication

这个项目正在努力在全国复制/传播纽约科学馆成功的“科学职业阶梯”，这是一项针对妇女和少数民族的职业机会方案。这些资金正被用来制作材料，包括由复制地点为我们制作录像带和手册。最初的复制工作正在25个科学技术中心进行，并由一次会议开始。会议和材料共同为在其他地点复制科学职业阶梯提供了一个信息和支持系统。“科学职业阶梯”模式招募初高中女性和少数族裔作为博物馆的讲解员，并激励她们成为大学前的科学教师。这是一个旨在丰富学生经验的项目，当他们进入本科学校并准备成为教师时。高中学生通过作为讲解员的培训获得经验和知识，然后作为本科生更深入地了解博物馆的工作，包括展览和科学研究。该项目是与纽约大都会地区的五所公立学院合作开展的。

This project is making efforts to see a national replication/dissemination of the New York Hall of Science's successful "Science Career Ladder", a career access program targeted to women and minorities. The funds are being used to develop materials including a videotape and manual for us by replication sites. The initial replication is taking place at 25 science-technology centers and was begun with a Conference. Together, the conference and materials are providing an information and support system for replication of the Science Career Ladder at other sites. The Science Career Ladder model recruits junior and senior high school women and minorities as Explainers for the museum, and is motivating them to become precollege teachers of science. It is a program aimed at enriching the experience for the students when they go on to undergraduate schools and are preparing to be teachers. The high school students gain experience and knowledge through being trained as Explainers, and are then moved more deeply into the workings of the museum, both exhibits and scientific research, as undergraduates. The program is carried out in collaboration with five public colleges in the New York metropolitan area.
