DIS - Gender Schemas and Science Careers: Tutorials for Change

该项目将为SMET的学生和学院和大学的教职员工以及对性别在科学职业中的作用的研究摘要感兴趣的任何其他人提供在线教程。教程将使用Powerpoint幻灯片开发，并配有旁白。每一个都将包括一个注释的书目，一个供网站访问者填写的问卷（自愿），向PI发送查询和评论的机会，以及来自这些电子邮件的问答材料。这项工作将在亨特学院-纽约市立大学进行，教程将安装在亨特学院的服务器上。因此，世界上任何人都可以通过网络访问教程。一旦示范教程制作完成，PI将与关注科学领域性别平等的教育机构和团体联系，邀请这些团体对教程进行评估，并提供亨特学院网站的链接。随着项目的继续，更多的组织和团体将被邀请创建到网站的链接。像这样的网站目前还不存在。PI是唯一有资格出版一本关于提高妇女职业地位的书的作者（广泛总结研究），作为一名认知心理学家，他开发了与性别有关的新课程，经常就这一主题发表演讲。（为理科学生和教育工作者做了100多场演讲和讨论），并作为一个网站的开发者，为未来的研究生亨特的心理学硕士课程。主要研究者将特别利用向不同受众授课的经验，将从以下方面评估结果：a）访问网站和每个教程的次数，B）与网站链接的教育机构和组织的数量，c）调查问卷和电子邮件的分析。与更大的社区相关的反馈结果将在分析后发布到网站上。关于对男性和女性的评价中的无意偏见的科学信息可以在技术来源中获得，但大多数学生或教育工作者并不知道。由此产生的产品将提供一套15分钟的教程，可纳入讲习班、简报会、课堂讨论、网站和在线课程，对象是研究妇女在中小型和微型企业中任职人数不足问题的任何人。其内容借鉴了许多研究结果和成果，是对许多主要提供统计摘要的简报和报告的实质性和可获取的补充。

The project will produce on-line tutorials for SMET students and faculty at colleges and universities, and for anyone else interested in a summary of research about the role of gender in science careers. The tutorials will be developed using Powerpoint slides with voice-over narration. Each will include an annotated bibliography, a questionnaire for site visitors to fill out (voluntarily), the opportunity to send queries and comments to PI, and question and answer material from those emailed messages.The work will be performed at Hunter College - CUNY and the tutorials will be mounted on a Hunter College server. The tutorials can thus be reached by anyone in the world with access to the web. Once a demonstration tutorial is created, the PI will contact educational institutions and groups concerned with gender equity in science in order to invite such groups to evaluate the tutorial and to provide a link to the Hunter College site. As the project continues, more organizations and groups will be invited to create links to the site.Tutorials like these do not currently exist. The PI is uniquely qualified as the author of a published book on women's advancement in the professions (extensively summarizing research), as a cognitive psychologist who has developed new courses related to gender, as a frequent presenter on the topic (having given 100+ presentations to and discussions with science students and educators), and as the developer of a web site for prospective graduate students to Hunter's MA Program in Psychology. The PI in particular will leverage experience giving lectures to diverse audiences.Outcome measures will be evaluated from a) the number of visits to the site and to each tutorial, b) the number of educational institutions and organizations with links to the site, c) analysis of questionnaires and emailed messages. Feedback results that are relevant to the larger community will be posted to the site once they have been analyzed.Science-based information about inadvertent bias in evaluations of men and women is available in technical sources but is not known to most students or educators. The resulting product will provide a suite of 15-minute tutorials that could be incorporated into workshops, briefings, classroom discussions, web sites, and on-line courses aimed at anyone studying the underrepresentation of women in SMET. The content drawing on many research findings and results is a substantive and accessible complement to many briefings and reports that primarily present summaries of statistics.
