Diversity, Culture, and Identity in America's Research Universities: Research-Based Initiatives that Promote Shared Discovery and Learning by Students, Faculty, and Staff

这个项目是为了支持将于11月14日至15日举行的重塑中心2016年全国会议。由再造中心主办的定期全国会议被用来展示一些本科STEM教育的进步，也为致力于提高其大学本科STEM教育质量的官员提供了一个方便的场所。2016年会议的目标是重点研究多样性、文化和身份对以下方面的影响：本科学习、学位完成和不同亚群体学生成功模式的差距；2. 纵向整合教师、博士后、研究生和本科生参与的发现和学习活动的可能性；和3。研究型大学跨不同行政区划的发现与学习横向整合的可能性。作为改善本科STEM教育的国家图景的一部分，该项目是对美国大学协会、公立和赠地大学协会、美国学院和大学协会以及越来越多的专注于本科STEM教育改进工作的区域和国家机构网络（如研究整合中心）正在进行的努力的非常有用的补充。教学与学习（46名成员）、大学创新联盟（11所公立大学成员）和湾景联盟（6所美国大学和3所加拿大大学成员）。它有助于IUSE: EHR支持社区转型的目标。

This project is to support the Reinvention Center's 2016 National Conference, to be held November 14-15. Periodic national conferences hosted by the Reinvention Center are used to showcase a number of undergraduate STEM education advances and also provide a convenient venue for networking officials working to improve the quality of undergraduate STEM education in their universities. The 2016 conference goals are to highlight research on the impact of diversity, culture, and identity on: 1. Undergraduate learning, degree completion, and gaps in patterns of student success across different sub-populations; 2. Possibilities for vertical integration of discovery and learning activities involving faculty, post-docs, graduate students, undergraduates; and 3. Possibilities for horizontal integration of discovery and learning across different administrative divisions in research universities. Viewed as part of the national picture for improving undergraduate STEM education, this project is a highly useful complement to ongoing efforts by the Association of American Universities, the Association of Public and Land Grant Universities, the Association of American Colleges and Universities, and a growing number of regional and national networks of institutions with focused improvement efforts for undergraduate STEM education, such as the Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching and Learning (with 46 members), the University Innovation Alliance (11 public university members), and the Bayview Alliance (with 6 US and 3 Canadian university members). It contributes to the IUSE: EHR objective of supporting Community Transformation.
