As part of an effort to increase science literacy in the schools and community involved, this project builds on a number of ongoing outreach programs between the University and the school district and includes involvement of informal science resources (the McWane Science Center). Fellows work with a wide variety of people of varying ages, backgrounds and interests. The program is modified to accommodate first year, middle year or capstone students (fellows completing their final year of work) to take full advantage of their abilities and to meet their varying needs. Fellows are prepared to work in the classroom through a seminar providing an overview of learning theory and pedagogy that includes two observations of K-12 students in an informal science setting, two observations in a K-12 classroom, presentation of a science demonstration and one session assisting a mentor teacher. Fellows are then offered a variety of opportunities to establish a partnership with a teacher and work directly in the classroom helping to implement science standard related materials.

为了提高所涉及的学校和社区的科学素养的一部分，该项目以大学和学区之间的许多持续推广计划为基础，包括非正式科学资源（麦克瓦恩科学中心）的参与。 研究员与各种各样的年龄，背景和兴趣的人合作。 该计划经过修改，以适应第一年，中年或顶峰学生（工作者完成最后一年的工作），以充分利用其能力并满足他们的不同需求。 研究员准备通过一个研讨会在课堂上工作，提供学习理论和教学法的概述，其中包括在非正式科学环境中对K-12学生的两次观察，在K-12教室中进行了两个观察，介绍了科学演示和一项协助导师老师的课程。 然后，为研究员提供了各种机会，可以与老师建立合作伙伴关系，并直接在课堂上工作，以帮助实施科学标准相关的材料。
