Implementation and Expansion of Science-Based Service Technology in HEVs

刘易斯和克拉克社区学院（L&amp；C）正在开展一系列专注于混合动力电动汽车（HEV）技术的活动。该项目在汽车技术的所有八个主要领域为社区大学和高中汽车技术教师以及紧急救援人员开发了混合动力注入的专业发展计划。该项目还通过扩大其汽车学院的实施范围，将其服务范围扩大到伊利诺斯州西南部地区的高中，并通过扩大其名为“兜帽下的女性”的项目，继续重点招募该地区代表性不足的群体。更新混合动力注入课程，包括各种混合动力车型，并过渡到插电式混合动力车型也是该项目的一部分。该项目正在修订和更新与南伊利诺伊大学卡本代尔分校（SIUC）的衔接项目。维持和加强与本地处理混合动力汽车维修业务的现有伙伴关系。该项目通过传播课程发展活动的成果，提高了对混合动力技术教学的了解，并以代表性不足的群体和女性为目标。

Lewis and Clark Community College (L&C) is conducting a number of activities which focus on hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) technology. The project develops HEV-infused professional development programs in all eight major areas of automotive technology for community college and high school instructors of automotive technology and to emergency responders. The project also expands its outreach to high schools in the region of southwestern Illinois with the broadened implementation of its Automotive Academy and continues a focused recruitment of underrepresented groups in the region through expansion of its program called Females under the Hood. Updating the HEV-infused curriculum to include a variety of HEV car models and to transition to plug-in hybrid models is also part of the project. The project is revising and updating its articulation program with Southern Illinois University-Carbondale (SIUC). Existing partnerships with local automotive repair businesses which deal with HEVs are sustained and strengthened. The project increases understanding about instruction in HEV technology with dissemination of the results of the curriculum development activities and targets underrepresented groups and females.
