Project ChemBOND: The Next Generation

K-12教育研究生助教PROPOSAL#：0638662 PRINCIPAL调查员：Donna M.Chamely-WiikINSTUTION：佛罗里达大西洋大学TITLE：Project ChemBOND：下一代该项目是佛罗里达大西洋大学(FAU)和棕榈滩县学区(PBCSD)之间的合作项目，将重点放在通过GK-12计划将ChemBOND项目纳入高中科学课程(9-12年级)。ChemBOND倡议在大学一级取得了成功。该项目将在课堂和实验室中开发、调整和采用基于概念的动手化学活动(ChemBOND模块)，以创造一个促进学习和理解的无缝环境。该项目每年将招聘8名STEM研究生研究员和8名教师。他们将为4所PBCSD学校的约40个班级提供服务。化学和相关科学的模块将由研究生研究员和教师合作开发和实施。PBCSD和FAU之间建立的关系将导致所有机构发生永久性的积极变化，并促进可持续的互动。首席调查员将与外部评估员合作，评估该项目的成效。智力上的好处包括在高中阶段实施ChemBOND。更广泛的影响包括为不同群体的高中生和教师提供机会，增加他们的科学内容知识，并参与科学研究。

GRADUATE TEACHING FELLOWS IN K-12 EDUCATION ABSTRACTPROPOSAL #: 0638662PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Donna M. Chamely-WiikINSTITUTION: Florida Atlantic UniversityTITLE: Project ChemBOND: The Next GenerationThe project, which is a partnership between the Florida Atlantic University (FAU) and the Palm Beach County School District (PBCSD), will focus on incorporating Project ChemBOND into the high school science classes (grades 9-12) through the GK-12 program. The ChemBOND initiative has been successful at the university level. The project will develop, adapt, and adopt conceptually based, hands-on chemistry activities (ChemBOND Modules) in both the classroom and laboratory, to create a seamless environment that fosters learning and understanding. Each year the project will recruit 8 STEM graduate fellows and 8 teachers. Together they will serve approximately 40 classes in 4 PBCSD schools. Modules for chemistry and related sciences will be developed and implemented collaboratively by graduate fellows and teachers. Relationships established between the PBCSD and FAU will result in permanent positive changes at all institutions and foster sustainable interactions. The principal investigators will work with external evaluators to evaluate the effectiveness of the project. The intellectual merit includes implementation of ChemBOND at the high school level. The broader impacts include providing the opportunity to a diverse population of high school students and teachers to increase their science content knowledge and engage in scientific inquiry.
