Replication of STARLAB Training-rental at Non-urban Science/Technology Centers

纽约科学馆要求拨款在三年内发展一个非城市项目和18个第一代在全国范围内复制我们的教师培训和设备租赁天文学项目，STARLAB。该项目建立在STARLAB在纽约和通过我们与劳伦斯科学馆合作培训的城市场地的成功经验的基础上。目标受众包括传统上代表性不足、种族和经济多样化的群体。在全国非城市环境中建模和启动第一轮复制时，该计划认识到大多数在城市中心以外接受教育的全国学童的需求。

The New York Hall of Science requests a grant over three years to develop a non-urban program and 18 first generation replications across the country of our teacher training and equipment rental astronomy program, STARLAB. The project builds on STARLAB's proven success here in New York and in urban sites trained through our collaboration with the Lawrence Hall of Science. The target audience include traditionally underrespresented, ethnically and economically diverse groups. In modelling and initiating the first round of replications in non-urban settings nationwide, the program recognizes the needs of a majority of the nation's school children whose education takes place outside of our urban centers.
