CHIDR Chatter: Translating community research data forclassroom use

描述(由申请者提供)：该计划开发了社区健康互动数据资源(CHIDR)；这是一种传播干预措施，为教师和学生提供在线访问社区特定研究数据的机会，这些数据来自于让我们变得健康！教育和研究展览。数据收集、公平和学生通过CHIDR对本地数据的探索将被用作一种让学生参与理解个人和群体决策如何影响健康问题的方法。教师指导的数据探索将使学生能够第一手看到如何利用参与NIH资助的人类研究研究来更好地了解人类健康。该项目将提高个人和课堂对与儿童肥胖有关的健康问题的认识，并促进使学生能够使用有意义的数据在学校和社区做出积极改变的技能。拟议项目的直接影响是为基于网络的数据可视化工具和资源库开发基础设施，该工具和资源库向包括教师在内的公众免费提供， 学生、政策制定者和社区卫生团体。CHIDR将利用已经成功的让我们变得健康！该计划旨在提供基于网络的资源，其中可以使用准确的、特定地区的数据来支持个人和政策决策，以改善公共卫生。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal develops the Community Health Interactive Data Resource (CHIDR); a dissemination intervention that provides teachers and students with online access to community-specific research data generated from the Let's Get Healthy! education and research exhibit. The data-gathering fair and student exploration of local data through CHIDR will be used as a method of engaging students in understanding how personal and group decisions can impact heath issues. Teacher-guided exploration of data will enable students to see first-hand how participation in an NIH-funded human research study can be used to better understand human health. This project will raise individual and classroom awareness about health issues related to childhood obesity as well as promote skills that enable students to use meaningful data to make positive changes in their school and community. The immediate impact of the proposed project develops the infrastructure for a web-based data visualization tool and resource library that is freely available to the public, including teachers, students, policy makers and community health groups. CHIDR would leverage the already successful Let's Get Healthy! program to provide a web-based resource where accurate, region-specific data could be used to enable personal and policy decisions that improve public health.
