Cross-Curricular Systems Thinking & Dynamic Using STELLA: Project CC-STADUS

该项目将培训大量教师， 科学，数学和社会研究的系统思维。 在36个月内，大约100名教师将学会使用 建模系统，包括STELLA， 即使是低端的Macintosh电脑， 复杂的问题 22名教师将成为核心团队 它积累、发展和传播有关的模型， 数学、科学、技术和社会的重要性。 与当地行业和机构建立伙伴关系， 为教师提供持续的支持， 相关模型。 尽管该项目直接服务于教师， 在俄勒冈州，它还包括对教师的其他支持， 国家教育工作者用户团体的信息， 以允许共享模型的方式联网，以及 提供有用的真实的 世界模特 通过这个项目，教师将开始 为他们的课程建立跨学科的应用。 这些模型帮助学生理解和表现 复杂的过程。 承授人提供的配对成本为 百分之二十二

This project will train a substantial number of teachers of science, mathematics and social studies in systems thinking. In 36 months, approximately 100 teachers will learn to use modeling systems, including STELLA which is available for even low-end Macintosh computers, to represent and solve complex problems. Twenty-two teachers will be the core team which accumulates develops and disseminates models related to mathematics, science, technology and society. Partnerships with local industry and agencies help by providing the ongoing support teachers need to develop relevant models. Even though the project directly serves only teachers in Oregon, it includes other supports for teachers such as the information of a national user's group for educators, networking in a way which permits sharing models, and significant commercial involvement in providing useful real world models. Through this project, teachers will begin building interdisciplinary applications for their courses. These models help students to understand and represent complex processes. The grantee provides matching costs of 22%.
