SSC: "Summer Microscopy Institute for Middle School Students"

SSC-9450302纽堡扩大城市学区。 纽堡，纽约Saturnelli，Annette "中学生暑期显微镜研究所" 该计划旨在为50名少数民族7年级学生提供成功所需的目标导向。 当个人渴望达到一个目标时，只有当他/她相信它可以实现时。 目标创造了学习的欲望。 一个环境（一个独特设计的高科技，模拟研究和开发设施）已经创建，学生将参与解决问题的项目，并提供与少数民族榜样持续互动的机会，使他们可以开始想象自己在这些角色，项目自己的未来，并设想自己作为科学家，工程师和科学教师。 此外，还将为8名少数族裔高中生提供科学教学/指导经验，他们是纽约州科学荣誉协会的成员，目前正在学习更高水平的科学课程。 将举办一个在职课程，使教师能够掌握在多文化环境中向少数民族学生教授科学的适当战略，并制定和实施干预战略，以唤起少数民族学生对科学的兴趣，增加他们对科学的参与。 该方案还包括为学生家长举办的活动。 该提案侧重于配备先进技术的学生团队，他们从事适合进入七年级学生的综合科学和数学问题解决研究。 这种方法利用并鼓励学生的想象力和对世界的自然好奇心。 在这个学习环境的核心是两个扫描电子显微镜，扫描隧道显微镜，和透射电子显微镜（已经捐赠，或从我们的行业/高等教育合作伙伴的贷款）。 显微镜的互动性强调视觉和动觉学习，并解决了与学生对科学教育应该是什么样的看法相一致的学习模式的需要。

SSC-9450302 Newburgh Enlarged City School Dist. Newburgh, NY Saturnelli, Annette "Summer Microscopy Institute For Middle School Students" This program is designed to provide 50 minority 7th grade students with the goal orientation needed for success. As individual aspires to reach a goal, only if he/she believes it can happen. The goal creates the appetite for learning. An environment (a uniquely designed high-technology, simulated research and development facility) has been created where students will engaged in problem-solving projects and provided with opportunities for sustained interaction with minority role models so that they may begin to imagine themselves in these roles, project themselves into the future, and visualize themselves as scientists, engineers, and science teachers. In addition, as science teaching/mentoring experience will be provided for 8 minority high school students, members of the New York State Science Honor Society and currently enrolled in higher level science courses. An inservice course will be conducted that will enable teachers to acquire appropriate strategies for teaching science in a multi-cultural setting to minority students and to develop and implement intervention strategies for a awakening interest in and increasing participation of minority students in science. The program also includes activities for the parents of the students. The proposal focuses on teams of students, equipped with advanced technology, who are engaged in integrated science and math problem-solving research appropriate for students entering the 7th grade. The approach takes advantage of and encourages the students' imagination and natural curiosity with the world. At the core of this learning environment are two scanning electron microscopes, a scanning tunneling microscope, and a transmission electron microscope (already donated by, or on loan from, our industry/higher education partners). The interactiveness of the microscopes emphasiz es visual and kinesthetic learning and addresses the need for a mode of learning congruent with the student's perception of what science education should be like today.
