WORKSHOP: Project Kaleidoscope Faculty 21 Summer Institute

[9714869] Narum在PKAL（万花筒项目）中心的F21（21世纪教师）网络，在本科科学/数学社区内培养变革的推动者。通过使教师在职业生涯的早期阶段与当代领导人建立联系，并参与旨在改变本科自然科学社区的富有成效的对话和有意义的活动，PKAL将帮助为这个国家的教育和科学的未来奠定基础。随着PKAL F21网络的发展，必须为F21成员发展和扩大联系和专业发展的机会。通过严格的申请程序，PI将在未来三年内确定大约15名F21成员参加一系列暑期学院。F21的参与者将反映出这个国家高等教育的多样性；他们还将代表各种科学学科。被选中的参与者将与教育、公共政策和研究领域的一小群国家领导人一起度过五天，这些领导人将作为研究所参与者的导师。F21暑期学院将提供精心策划和协调的一系列活动，包括：在不断变化的世界中，有机会就科学和技术的未来进行认真对话，有机会就中小企业本科项目——现在和未来——服务于国家目标的能力进行认真对话，有时间反思个人和职业目标，有时间为未来几个月和几年的行动议程制定模板，使他们能够实现目标，并在他们实施行动议程的过程中提供支持。评估将是PKAL F21暑期学院项目的关键部分。PI将寻求在地方和国家层面增加领导参与，继续努力改变中小企业和理工学院本科生的学习环境。

9714869 Narum The F21, (Faculty for the 21st Century) Network, at the Center of PKAL, (Project Kaleidoscope), fosters agents of change within the undergraduate science/mathematics community. By enabling faculty at an early career stage to make connections with the present generation of leaders and engage in productive dialogue and meaningful activity directed toward transforming the undergraduate natural science community, PKAL will help build a foundation for the future of education and science in this country. As the PKAL F21 Network grows, it is imperative to develop and expand opportunities for connections and professional growth available to F21 members. Through a rigorous application process, the PI will identify approximately fifteen F21 members each for a series of Summer Institutes during the next three years. F21 participants will reflect the diversity in higher education in this country; they will also represent the various scientific disciplines. Selected participants will spend five days with a small group of national leaders in education, public policy, and research who will serve as mentors to Institute participants. The F21 Summer Institutes will offer a carefully-orchestrated and coordinated set of activities, providing: opportunity for serious dialogue about the future of science and technology in a changing world and about the capacity of undergraduate SME&T programs-now and in the future-to serve the national purpose, time to reflect on personal and professional goals, templates for outlining an agenda for action in coming months and years that enables them to achieve their goals and support as they move toward implementing their agenda for action. Assessment will be a key part of the PKAL F21 Summer Institute program. The PI will seek to determine the increased leadership involvement at both the local and the national level in the continued effort to transform the learning environment for undergraduates in SME&T.
