9450684 Wink The faculty in the department of chemistry at Chicago State University (CSU), William Rainey Harper College (HC) and the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) will join in a consortium to create, share, and evaluate curriculum changes in chemistry and related areas. Their efforts build upon networks already established for the purposes of curriculum reform. This new Consortium will create versatile, multi-faceted, and well-tested options for implementation at peer institutions. Each institution is responsible for the independent generation of one or more comprehensive curricula that will be implemented on their campus and later on the campus of one of the other Consortia members. CSU faculty will initially focus on a two-year combined physical sciences and mathematics program. HC faculty will initially focus on a two-year combined physical sciences and mathematics program. HC faculty will address both the general and organic sequences and non-major courses. UIC faculty will work on projects related to introductory chemistry, chemistry for engineers, and upper division courses. The personnel will also collaborate from the inception of the program on two inter-campus projects, The Data Project and The Chemistry Hook, designed to create a general set of materials to introduce research and life-related examples into chemistry courses. An annual symposium on science education issues will also be sponsored by the Consortium. ***y

9450684 Wink芝加哥州立大学（CSU），William Rainey Harper College（HC）和芝加哥大学（UIC）的化学系教职和相关领域。 他们的努力建立在为课程改革目的已经建立的网络基础上。 这个新的联盟将创建多功能，多方面且经过良好测试的选项，以在同伴机构实施。 每个机构都负责独立的一项或多种全面课程，该课程将在其校园内以及后来在其他财团成员之一的校园内实施。 CSU教师最​​初将专注于为期两年的物理科学和数学计划。 HC教师最初将专注于两年的合并体育科学和数学计划。 HC教职员工将介绍一般和有机序列以及非硕士课程。 UIC教师将研究与入门化学，工程师化学和上层课程有关的项目。 该人员还将从该计划的成立开始，在两个校园间项目，数据项目和化学钩上进行合作，旨在创建一套一般的材料，将研究和与生命有关的例子引入化学课程。 该财团还将赞助一年一度的科学教育问题研讨会。 *** y
