The Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) through Targeted Infusion Projects supports the development, implementation, and study of evidence-based innovative models and approaches for improving the preparation and success of HBCU undergraduate students so that they may pursue STEM graduate programs and/or careers. The project at Jackson State University seeks to improve African American students' academic performance and retention in STEM fields through enhancing their awareness of their own abilities to learn complex STEM subjects, improving their ability for selecting and using cognitive and metacognitive strategies, monitoring their learning process and making necessary adjustment in their learning efforts. The findings from the project can be used to inform future practice in and research on developing expertise of STEM faculty and assisting students to acquire self-regulated learning skills.The project has the following three objectives: 1) To provide STEM faculty members with professional development opportunities for obtaining skills and knowledge in educational theories through implementing the self-regulated learning assessment and by participating in a teaching community with learning scientists; 2) To provide African American students with deliberate training opportunities in multiple STEM courses for improving their skills for effectively managing their STEM learning efforts and obtaining a deeper understanding of the subject through implementing the self-regulated learning assessment in their STEM courses; and 3) To provide evidence-based data to confirm the effectiveness of proposed faculty professional development model and student skill training model and to identify factors that can facilitate obtaining desirable outcomes from the two models. The proposed activities and strategies are evidence-based and the implementation is guided by an evaluation.

历史上黑人学院和大学本科项目 (HBCU-UP) 通过定向注入项目支持开发、实施和研究基于证据的创新模型和方法，以改善 HBCU 本科生的准备和成功，以便他们能够攻读 STEM 研究生计划和/或职业。杰克逊州立大学的该项目旨在通过提高非裔美国学生对自己学习复杂 STEM 科目的能力的认识、提高他们选择和使用认知和元认知策略的能力、监控他们的学习过程，来提高他们在 STEM 领域的学业成绩和保留率。并对他们的学习努力做出必要的调整。该项目的研究结果可用于为未来发展 STEM 教师专业知识和帮助学生获得自我调节学习技能的实践和研究提供信息。该项目有以下三个目标： 1）为 STEM 教师提供专业发展通过实施自我调节学习评估和参与学习科学家的教学社区，获得教育理论技能和知识的机会； 2）为非裔美国学生提供多个STEM课程的刻意培训机会，以提高他们有效管理STEM学习工作的技能，并通过在STEM课程中实施自我调节学习评估来加深对学科的理解； 3）提供基于证据的数据，以确认拟议的教师专业发展模型和学生技能培训模型的有效性，并确定有助于从这两个模型中获得理想结果的因素。拟议的活动和战略以证据为基础，并以评估为指导实施。
