SSC: "Science Summer Camp and Academic Year Follow-Up Program

纽约市立大学研究基金会夏皮罗，诺曼和卡尔·伯科维茨“科学夏令营和学年后续计划”这个关于科学夏令营的提议建立在一个成功的模式之上，旨在为300名（每年100名）有学术天赋的少数民族七年级和八年级学生提供必要的支持和充实，以成功通过纽约市专业科学高中(史岱文森高中，布朗克斯科学高中，布鲁克林技术高中)。这是通过一个为期四周的夏季预备期，然后是一个月一个星期六的校园项目来实现的。为期四周的夏季住宅部分是介绍科学，数学和技术世界的基础。通过同伴网络的发展，学生们被介绍到学术卓越。为了达到项目的目标，学生们被引入了更先进的科学、数学和技术概念。在夏季，学生们准备参加具有挑战性的高中课程，并介绍纽约市专业科学高中所需的技能。该项目介绍了必要的支持系统，并使学生熟悉数学，科学和工程方面的职业机会。学生还被介绍到特殊高中和其他特殊高中课程的特殊机会。夏季部分之后是纽约城市学院学年的校园项目。这一阶段将包括学术活动、特别讲座、分享时间，每个学生都能得到同伴和导师的支持。此外，教职员将与参加活动的学生所在学校的校长和辅导员会面，告知他们学生参加活动的情况，以确保学生得到必要的学校支持。学校还将与家长举行校内见面会。学生们还将获得参加纽约市特殊科学高中和其他特殊高中课程的建议。该项目的目标包括：1)增加少数族裔学生申请进入纽约市三所专业科技高中的人数；2)鼓励有能力的青少年发展他们的数学、科学和语言技能，以增加他们进入纽约市特殊科技高中的前景；3)强化参与者对科学、数学和技术学科的积极态度；4)增加考虑从事科学、数学和工程职业的参与者数量；5)提供个人、职业、学业和助学金方面的咨询；6)引入和测试新的强化课程，以供更广泛的应用。项目评价的目的是确定每个参与者实现项目目标的程度。

SSC-9450487 CUNY Research Foundation New York, NY Shapiro, Norman and Carl Berkowitz "Science Summer Camp and Academic Year Follow-Up Program" This proposal for Summer Science Camp builds upon a successful model and is designed to provide 300 (100 each year) academically talented minority 7th and 8th graders with the necessary support and enrichment to successfully pass the entrance examination for the New York City's specialized science high schools (Stuyvesant High School, Bronx High School of Science, Brooklyn Technical High School). This is achieved through a four-week summer preparatory period followed by a one Saturday a month campus program. The four-week summer residential component serves as the foundation for the introduction of the world of science, mathematics and technology. Through the development of a peer network, students are introduced to academic excellence. To reach the project goals, students are introduced to more advanced concepts in science, mathematics and technology. In the summer, students are prepared to take challenging courses at the high school level and are introduced to the skills necessary for the New york City specialized science high school. This project introduces the necessary support systems and familiarizes the students with career opportunities in mathematics, science and engineering. Students are also introduced to the special opportunities of the specialized high schools and other special high school programs. Following the summer component is a City College of New York Academic year on- campus program. This phase will include academic activities, special lectures, sharing time where each student receives the support of peers and mentors. In addition the principal staff will meet with the participating student's school principal and guidance counselor, informing them of the students program participation in order to ensure that the student receives the necessary school support. Meetings will also be held w ith parents on-campus. Students will also be provided with advisement on attending the New York City specialized science high schools and other special high school programs. The project objectives include: 1) increasing the number of minority students that apply into the three New York City specialized science and technology high schools; 2) encouraging highly able youngsters to develop their math, science and verbal skills in order to increase their prospects for admission into New York City special science and technology high schools; 3) strengthening participants positive attitudes toward science, mathematics, and technology subjects; 4) increasing the pool of participants considering careers in science, mathematics and engineering; 5) providing personal, career, academic and financial-aid counseling; and 6) introducing and testing new enrichment curriculum for wider application. The project evaluation will be directed to determine the extent that the project goals and objectives are achieved by the individual participants.
