Track 1, GK-12: Science and Technology Enrichment for Appalachian Middle-schoolers (STEAM)

该提案描述了俄亥俄大学与阿巴拉契亚农村中学合作开发的1轨道项目。STEAM（阿巴拉契亚中学生科学技术浓缩）项目旨在扩大俄亥俄大学工科学生的研究生教育，并改善周边六所中学中学生的科学课程学习。该项目旨在提高研究生的沟通、指导和团队合作能力；提高中学生科学和数学成绩；提高中学生对科学、数学和技术的兴趣；刷新科学教师的技术知识。为了实现这些目标，K-12教师和研究员将开发涉及新技术的数字课程内容，这些内容将准备好供其他中学科学教师在他们的科学课堂上使用。在这个过程中，研究员的成功将向大学社区展示，这将促进大学的文化变革，使人们认识到gk -12式社区服务学习的不可替代的好处。

This proposal describes a Track 1 project developed by Ohio University in partnership with rural Appalachian Middle Schools. The STEAM (Science and Technology Enrichment for Appalachian Middle school students) project aims to broaden graduate education for engineering students at Ohio University and improve learning in science courses for middle school students at six surrounding middle school. The project seeks to improve Graduate Fellow communication, instruction, and teamwork skills; improve middle school student academic performance in science and mathematics; increase middle school student interests in science, mathematics, and technology; and refresh science teacher s technology knowledge. To accomplish these goals, K-12 teachers and Fellows will develop digital curricular content involving novel technologies, which will be ready for other middle school science teachers to use in their science classroom. In the process, the success of Fellows will be showcased to the University community, which will foster cultural change in the institution towards the recognition of the irreplaceable benefits of GK-12-style community service learning.
