PI Name: Kam Leang Institution Name: University of Nevada Reno Proposal Title: The NSF GK-12 E-Fellowship Program: Toward Energy-Aware STEM Leaders for the 21st Century Proposal ID: 1045584The ?E? in the E-Fellowship Program stands for energy, the program?s main theme (graduate research fellows are referred to as ?E-Fellows?). The goal is to prepare E-Fellows to become future STEM leaders in the field of energy and be ?energy aware?. To do so, E-Fellows will be partnered with middle and high school teachers across four schools in the Washoe County School District (WCSD) to bring their STEM energy-related research into K-12 classrooms via inquiry- and project-based activities. Research topics include energy harvesting using smart materials, nanomaterials for photovoltaics, hydrogen energy and storage, biomass and biofuels, geothermal, wind energy, and efficient power grid systems. By involving local Nevada energy industries (e.g., NV Energy and Ormat Nevada), this program will strengthen the relationship between UNR, the WCSD, and the local and regional community. In addition to pedagogical and instructional training, E-Fellows will benefit from strengthened leadership, communication, teaching, grantsmanship, budgeting, time management, team building, and professional service skills to help prepare them for academic and/or industry duties after graduation. Teachers will benefit from participation through earning graduate professional development credits, development of exciting new curricula, and forging of strong university ties. Field trips (including international trips) will strengthen content knowledge and help build camaraderie among the participants and will provide energy-related local connections that can be used in the classroom. A traveling energy science/technology lab, the E-Mobile, will be outfitted with energy-related demonstrations and hands-on projects (some created by fellow/teacher partners and students) to support energy demonstrations and exhibits to excite students and the community.

PI名称：KAM Leang机构名称：内华达大学里诺大学提案标题：NSF GK-12 E-Fellowship计划：21世纪提案的能源感知的STEM领导者ID：1045584？e？在E-Fellowship计划中，该计划的主要主题（研究生研究研究员称为“电子费用？）。目的是准备电子书成为能量领域的未来茎领导者，并成为“能量”。为此，e-Fellows将与Washoe县学区（WCSD）四所学校的中学和高中教师合作，通过询问和基于项目的活动将与STEM相关的研究带入K-12教室。研究主题包括使用智能材料收集能量，用于光伏的纳米材料，氢能和存储，生物量和生物燃料，地热，风能以及有效的电网系统。通过参与内华达州当地的能源行业（例如NV Energy和Ormat Nevada），该计划将加强UNR，WCSD与当地和地区社区之间的关系。除了教学和教学培训外，电子著作还将受益于加强领导，沟通，教学，赠款，预算，时间管理，团队建设和专业服务技能，以帮助他们为学术和/或毕业后的行业职责做好准备。教师将通过赢得研究生专业发展学分，令人兴奋的新课程的发展以及牢固的大学关系而受益。 实地考察（包括国际旅行）将增强内容知识并帮助参与者之间建立友情，并将提供与能源相关的本地连接，可在课堂上使用。旅行能源科学/技术实验室E-Mobile将配备与能源相关的演示和动手项目（一些由其他/老师合作伙伴和学生创建的），以支持能量示范和展览，以激发学生和社区。
