项目摘要

This demonstration project builds and deploys culturally relevant computing curricula for Native Hawaiian M/K-8 students. By collaborating with existing programs and partners in Kāneʻohe, Hawaiʻi, including the Pacific American Foundation and Ke Kula Kaiapuni ʻo Pūʻōhala School, this project supports students in developing place-based education and Hawaiian cultural restoration practices alongside concepts of computer science. The project enables students to learn to program using the BBC Micro:bit, a pocket-sized computer with built-in sensors that can be programmed using Microsoft’s Makecode interface. In learning how to program the BBC Micro:bit, students collect data using sensors, embedded systems, and wearables to support local natural resource preservation efforts. Students learn about integrating computing and sustainability at the Waikalua Loko Iʻa, a Native Hawaiian fishpond and cultural landmark supported by the Pacific American Foundation, by engaging in culturally relevant curricula.This project explores computing education curricula for Native Hawaiian students at Ke Kula Kaiapuni ʻo Pūʻōhala School, a Hawaiian immersion bi-lingual public school. This project employs concepts of practice-linked learning to facilitate an environment for students to explore the role of computing and cultural identity across various problem-solving activities and experiences. This demonstration project is a community-oriented effort that emphasizes student interaction between the environment and computing technologies. The ongoing goals of this project are to support a team of educators, curriculum developers, ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi language experts, and content specialists in curriculum and resource development. Furthermore, the project provides students with integrated computing opportunities during school, after-school, and summer activities, interweaving with existing place-based education at the Waikalua Loko Iʻa. Lastly, the project promotes community collaboration by reflecting on experiences, working with an advisory board, and expanding online computing education resources for Native Hawaiian learners.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该演示项目为夏威夷本地M/K-8学生建立并部署了与文化相关的计算课程。通过与夏威夷Kāne'ohe的现有计划和合作伙伴合作，包括Pacific American Foundation和Ke Kula Kaiapuni'op odohala学校，该项目支持学生开发基于地点的教育和夏威夷文化恢复实践以及计算机科学概念。该项目使学生能够使用BBC Micro：BIT学习编程，这是一款具有内置传感器的袖珍计算机，可以使用Microsoft的MakeCode接口对其进行编程。在学习如何编程BBC Micro：BIT，学生使用传感器，嵌入式系统和可穿戴设备收集数据，以支持当地的自然资源保护工作。学生通过从事与文化相关的课程来探索夏威夷原住民教育课程的夏威夷原住民教育教育课程，在Waikalua Loko i Aa纳卡卢阿Loko I'a（由Pacific Americation Foundation支持的夏威夷原住民）中的计算和可持续性学习。该项目采用与实践联系的学习概念，以促进学生在各种解决问题的活动和经验中探索计算和文化认同的作用的环境。该演示项目是一个面向社区的工作，强调了学生与计算技术之间的学生互动。该项目的持续目标是支持教育工作者，课程开发人员，夏威夷语言专家以及课程和资源开发方面的内容专家。此外，该项目在学校，课后和夏季活动期间为学生提供了集成的计算机会，并与Waikalua Loko I'A的现有基于地点的教育交织在一起。最后，该项目通过反思经验，与顾问委员会合作并扩大在线计算委员会的教育资源来促进社区合作。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响评估标准通过评估而被视为珍贵的支持。
