MPWG: FEMME CONTINUUM

9450592 KIMMEL这个新泽西理工学院的Femme Continuum项目将服务于五年级和六年级后的女孩，她们是Femme校友的入门。该项目的合作伙伴是纽瓦克博物馆、新泽西海洋科学联盟和自由科学中心。这一非住校方案将包括在1995年春季学期举办的5个学年讲习班、将于1995年7月举行的为期4周的夏季讲习班和1995年9月举行的后续会议。将提供科学、数学和工程方面的指导，以及口头和书面沟通技能。将通过对宾夕法尼亚州Dingman‘s Ferry的Pocono环境教育中心、新泽西州Sandy Hook的海洋科学联盟、纽瓦克博物馆和新泽西州泽西市的自由科学中心的后续实地访问提供持续的体验。此外，学生参与者将接受学术和职业咨询，并将继续与从事SEM职业的女性专业人员(包括教师)以及大学生进行正式和非正式的互动。参与者将参与日常有组织的体育活动，以鼓励团队合作和合作努力。现有的学习小组将继续在科学、数学和工程概念的调查中培养合作学习习惯。该项目的工作人员将包括三名小学女教师和三名高中数学/科学女教师，以及NJIT的SEM教员。大学预科教师将组成由一名小学教师和一名高中教师组成的团队与学生一起工作。一名项目协调员将在1995年春季学期期间兼职工作，并在夏季全职工作5周。本课程完成后，所有学员将被提供其他暑期大学预科充实课程的信息和申请。***

9450592 Kimmel This New Jersey Institute of Technology FEMME Continuum project will serve post fifth and sixth grade girls who are Intro to FEMME alumnae. The partners in this project are the Newark Museum, the New Jersey Marine Science Consortium and Liberty Science Center. The non- residential program will be comprised of five academic year workshops conducted during the spring semester of 1995, a four-week summer component to be held during July of 1995, and a follow-up session in September 1995. Instruction will be provided in science, math and engineering, as well as oral and written communication skills. Continuing experiences will be provided through follow-up site visits to: the Pocono Environmental Education Center in Dingman's Ferry, Pennsylvania; the Marine Science Consortium in Sandy Hook, New Jersey; the Newark Museum and the Liberty Science Center in Jersey City, New Jersey. In addition, the student participants will receive academic and career counseling, and will continue to interact, both formally and informally, with female professionals engaged in SEM careers, including faculty, as well as with university students. Participants will be involved in daily structured athletic events to encourage teamwork and cooperative efforts. Existing study groups will continue to foster cooperative learning habits in the investigation of scientific, math and engineering concepts. Program staff will include three female elementary school teachers and three female high school math/science teachers, and NJIT SEM faculty. The pre-college teachers will form teams composed of an elementary teacher and a high school teacher to work with the students. A program coordinator will work part-time during the 1995 spring semester and full time for five weeks in the summer. All participants will be provided with information and applications for other summer precollege enrichment programs in SEM following completion of this program. ***
