0076310GeThis award provides opportunities for senior engineering students at SUNY Stony Brook to develop and deliver custom-made prototype assistive devices to improve the quality of life for a group of severely disabled children at nearby BOCES (Boards of Cooperative Educational Services of the State of New York) Forest Brook Learning Center. The five year program centers on a systematic approach to engineering design called "Total Design". The design approach requires the students to interact directly with their clients in order to develop the product design specifications based on the specific physical limitations of a physically challenged child and then carry out the design tasks systematically. Eight senior design projects are planned each year to develop prototype devices for the disabled. One of the areas emphasized in these projects is the development of "Adaptive Play Technology" for creating adapted devices and toys that are enjoyable, stimulating, and offer rewarding activities for the child. Another feature of the program is the participation of high school students from the "Young Scholar" program at SUNY Stony Brook. A summer workshop for local high school teachers is planned. The outcome of the program will include the prototype devices developed for the disabled children and a set of case study materials that high school Technology/Science educators could use to stimulate interests of high school students in engineering, and especially assistive technology for the disabled. The education outreach activity will be coordinated with the New York State Standards for Science and Technology. The case study materials will be subjected to the Peer Review process for possible inclusion in the web based American Association for the Advancement of Science MARCOPOLO collaboration.

0076310Ge该奖项为纽约州立大学石溪分校的高级工程学生提供了开发和提供定制原型辅助设备的机会，以改善附近 BOCES（纽约州合作教育服务委员会）一群严重残疾儿童的生活质量）森林布鲁克学习中心。这个为期五年的计划以称为“总体设计”的系统工程设计方法为中心。设计方法要求学生直接与客户互动，根据残障儿童的具体身体限制制定产品设计规范，然后系统地执行设计任务。每年计划八个高级设计项目，为残疾人开发原型设备。这些项目强调的领域之一是“自适应游戏技术”的开发，用于创造令人愉快、刺激并为孩子提供有益活动的适应性设备和玩具。该项目的另一个特点是来自纽约州立大学石溪分校“青年学者”项目的高中生的参与。计划为当地高中教师举办夏季讲习班。该计划的成果将包括为残疾儿童开发的原型设备和一套案例研究材料，高中技术/科学教育者可以利用这些材料来激发高中生对工程的兴趣，特别是对残疾人辅助技术的兴趣。教育推广活动将与纽约州科学技术标准相协调。案例研究材料将接受同行评审过程，以便可能纳入基于网络的美国科学促进协会马可波罗合作。
