Building Academic Leadership and Campus Capacity to Transform STEM Education at Selected HBCUS

该项目题为-建设学术领导和校园能力，以改变选定的HBCU的STEM教育-正在制定一项校园具体活动计划，将推进本科科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）教育转型的九个历史上黑人学院和大学（HBCU）从26个参与准备未来的关键教师（PCFF）中选出项目PCFF项目目前的工作为一个关键群体提供了专业和领导力-HBCUs当前和未来的有色STEM教师女性。PCFF正在与这些STEM教师合作，以解决教学和学术领导问题。PCFF 2项目将继续在PCFF创建的成功的支持和指导网络的基础上推进当前的工作。PCFF 2将利用HBCU的独特优势，使STEM专业毕业，同时有效应对HBCU特有的挑战，这些挑战可能会阻碍他们取得更大的成功。这些活动包括支持参与PCFF项目的有色STEM教师的女性继续专业发展活动;扩大支持范围，包括来自STEM和其他学科的额外教师，以及能够支持STEM教育转型的工作人员和管理人员;为校园团队提供专业发展，以计划和实施校园支持结构的改进;并提供-校园咨询专业知识，以帮助指导和推进他们的工作。PCFF 2开展的活动将通过识别和记录成功的要素，通过开发变革模式，建立机构流程和教育实践，提高HBCUs有效管理不断变化的STEM教育格局的能力。该项目将记录和传播成功模式，帮助HBCU和其他机构应对增加STEM毕业生数量的挑战。

The project entitled - Building Academic Leadership and Campus Capacity to Transform STEM Education at Selected HBCUs - is developing a program of campus specific activities that will advance the undergraduate science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education transformation for a group of nine Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) selected from among twenty-six involved in the Preparing Critical Faculty for the Future (PCFF) project. The current work of the PCFF project provides professional and leadership for a critical group - current and future women of color STEM faculty at HBCUs. PCFF is working with these STEM faculty to address pedagogical and academic leadership issues. The PCFF 2 project will advance the current work by continuing to build on the successful networks of support and mentoring that PCFF has created. PCFF 2 will draw on the unique strengths of HBCUs to graduate STEM majors, while effectively addressing the challenges that are unique to HBCUs that may inhibit them from being even more successful.The activities include supporting continued professional development activities for women of color STEM faculty who participate in the PCFF project; broadening the reach of support to include additional faculty from STEM and other disciplines, as well as staff and administrators who can support STEM education transformation; providing professional development to campus teams to plan and implement improvements in campus structures of support; and providing on-campus consultation expertise to help guide and advance their work.The activities that PCFF 2 undertakes will have a national impact by identifying and documenting the elements of success and by developing models of change that establish institutional processes and educational practices that enhance the ability of HBCUs to manage the changing STEM education landscape effectively. The project will document and disseminate the models of success that can help HBCUs and other institutions to address the challenge of increasing the number of STEM graduates.
