PROPOSAL #:0638680PI: Rajesh GanesanINSTITUTION: George Mason UniversityTITLE: Computation New, GK-12 SUNRISE: Schools, University, and Resources in the Sciences and Engineering SUNRISE is a new GK-12 project partnering STEM graduate students from George Mason University with teachers in grades 4-6 from three different school divisions in the state of Virginia. The objective of the project is to build a unique model of collaboration among teachers, school administrators, and the participating university to foster systemic efforts in implementing information technology rich content-knowledge into K-12 education. This is supported through science topics from contemporary areas such as GPS, nanotechnology, and oceanography and is brought into the classroom through lessons with hands-on experiments. The intellectual merit of this project is that creative information technology theme provides participants with a multi-level learning experience that advances knowledge of science topics and fosters professional development. This is achieved by constructing a framework that provides training and exchange of intellectual ideas, and integrates scientific research from diverse disciplines. It provides participants with an opportunity to discover, widen, and deepen knowledge within their own field as well as a mechanism to deliver that knowledge through the GK-12 graduate fellows. The broader impacts of the project include professional development opportunities for Fellows that strengthen their instructional and communication skills. The project offers the potential for sustained growth in quality and quantity of the nation's scientific workforce. The integration of research and education as well as the building of capacity of all the stakeholders offers many excellent possibilities and institutional culture change that transforms K-12 and graduate education. The project also supports the encouragement of diverse populations in the sciences through a focus on fellows and K-12 students from underrepresented populations.

提案编号：0638680PI：Rajesh Ganesan 机构：乔治梅森大学 标题：计算新，GK-12 SUNRISE：科学与工程领域的学校、大学和资源 SUNRISE 是一个新的 GK-12 项目，由乔治梅森大学的 STEM 研究生与教师合作来自弗吉尼亚州三个不同学区的 4-6 年级学生。该项目的目标是在教师、学校管理人员和参与大学之间建立独特的合作模式，以促进系统性努力，将丰富的信息技术知识内容落实到 K-12 教育中。 这是通过 GPS、纳米技术和海洋学等当代领域的科学主题来支持的，并通过实践实验课程带入课堂。 该项目的智力优势在于，创造性的信息技术主题为参与者提供了多层次的学习体验，可增进科学主题知识并促进专业发展。 这是通过构建一个提供培训和知识思想交流并整合不同学科科学研究的框架来实现的。 它为参与者提供了在自己的领域内发现、拓宽和深化知识的机会，以及通过 GK-12 研究生提供这些知识的机制。 该项目的更广泛影响包括为研究员提供专业发展机会，以加强他们的教学和沟通技能。该项目为国家科学劳动力的质量和数量的持续增长提供了潜力。研究和教育的整合以及所有利益相关者的能力建设提供了许多极好的可能性和制度文化变革，从而改变 K-12 和研究生教育。该项目还通过重点关注来自代表性不足人群的研究员和 K-12 学生，支持鼓励不同人群参与科学领域。
