This dissemination project seeks to expand the participation of girls and women in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and computer science education by implementing a broad, national public engagement campaign to disseminate The Gender Chip Project. The goal is to advance discovery and understanding about the way that girls and women access STEM educational opportunities and careers. The Gender Chip Project is a multi-platform program which includes, a one-hour film documentary and companion set of enrichment materials designed to deepen discussion and inquiry, while also offering further experiential activities for youth interested in STEM. The overall program, which builds upon the documentary as a foundation, features targeted classroom curricula, a comprehensive action workshop toolkit, and an evolving web site that aggregates research findings, best practices, professional development activities and evaluation instruments.Workshops, training and presentations will reach more than forty institutions and organizations, both large and small, spanning the country. It will engage more than 6,000 individuals throughout these sectors: (1) middle and high school teachers and counselors; (2) college and university faculty and administrators; (3) after-school and organizational nonprofit program staff; (4) professional development associations; (5) corporate personnel; (6) local, regional and national gender equity and STEM-related conference attendees.INTELLECTUAL MERIT-- The Gender Chip Project is a vehicle to advance discovery, understanding and action about the way girls and young women access STEM and computer technology educational opportunities and careers. The documentary and materials have been designed to stimulate dialogue, inquiry and action, especially among groups underrepresented in STEM careers. The documentary, web site, workshop and curricula materials have been developed in collaboration with leaders in STEM and gender equity research and education to provide the materials, training and support for adults who serve and mentor girls.BROADER IMPACT-- By deepening current partnerships and reaching out to regional and national organizations, and recognized leaders, programs, and other NSF grantees working in this area, this dissemination project will contribute critically needed resources and training opportunities for a variety of groups and individuals across the country who have a direct and indirect impact on young women's decisions about whether or not to pursue, and stay with STEM careers. The Gender Chip Project takes the theme of "how do women realistically begin to participate in wider STEM arenas as they prepare for adulthood and careers" to a broader and deeper level of discussion and action. By disseminating the film and all its companion materials throughout a variety of platforms -- from live interactions to materials always available online, the Gender Chip Project will significantly support and encourage key STEM educators and mentors making a difference in young women's lives and professional choices.

这个传播项目旨在通过实施一项广泛的国家公共参与运动来传播性别筹码项目，扩大女孩和妇女参与科学，技术，工程，数学和计算机科学教育。目的是提高发现和了解女孩和妇女获得STEM教育机会和职业的方式。性别芯片项目是一个多平台计划，其中包括一小时的电影纪录片和伴随的一组丰富材料，旨在加深讨论和询问，同时还为对STEM感兴趣的年轻人提供进一步的体验活动。总体计划以纪录片作为基础为基础，具有针对性的课堂课程，全面的行动研讨会工具包以及一个不断发展的网站，该网站汇总了研究发现，最佳实践，专业发展活动和评估工具。工作坊，培训和演讲将比跨越该国的五大机构和大型机构和组织都更多。它将吸引整个这些领域的6,000多名个人：（1）中学和高中教师和辅导员； （2）大学和大学教师和管理人员； （3）课后和组织非营利计划人员； （4）专业发展协会； （5）公司人员； （6）本地，地区和国家性别平等以及与STEM相关的会议参与者。智能优点 - 性别筹码项目是一种促进有关女孩和年轻女性访问STEM和计算机技术教育机会和职业的发现，理解和行动的工具。该纪录片和材料旨在刺激对话，询问和行动，尤其是在STEM职业中代表性不足的群体中。纪录片，网站，研讨会和课程材料已经与STEM和性别公平研究和教育领域的领导者合作开发以及全国各地对年轻妇女对是否追求并待在STEM职业的决定有直接和间接影响的个人。性别筹码项目以“女性如何在为成年和职业做准备的情况下，现实地开始参与更广泛的茎舞台”的主题。通过在各种平台中传播电影及其所有伴侣材料 - 从实时互动到始终在线可用的材料，性别芯片项目将大大支持并鼓励关键的STEM教育者和导师对年轻女性的生活和专业选择有所作为。
