With support from the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSI) Program, this New York HSI Hub project aims to bring about systemic improvements for 14 diverse and highly enrolled New York City area SUNY and CUNY community colleges through a five-year program of professional development in culturally responsive instruction, faculty learning communities, and grantsmanship mentoring of STEM faculty. The Hub’s activities will help address challenges community colleges face when attempting to build capacity for institutional change. Moreover, this project will expand the STEM pipeline for students in participating colleges by providing faculty with tools for effective teaching in diverse environments and for pursuing future grant funding to support efforts responsive to student success in STEM.This project aims to strengthen STEM education at the 14 participating colleges by offering a five-year program of a) faculty professional development in culturally responsive instructional methods to advance STEM success for students that represent the full spectrum of diverse talent at HSIs, and b) grantsmanship mentoring to increase the capacity of STEM faculty to competitively pursue NSF HSI funding to further accelerate culturally responsive instruction and related program improvements. Through workshops and network-building, the project uses Participatory Action Research to help faculty reflect and develop their teaching methods. Results of the project include creating an engaging and impactful classroom experience for community college STEM students, and successful grant development among the 14 participating colleges. Findings on the impacts of Participatory Action Research and grantsmanship training will be disseminated widely through national conferences and webinars. Results will also be disseminated through SUNY and CUNY systemwide meetings and events. This project is funded by the HSI Program, which aims to enhance undergraduate STEM education, broaden participation in STEM, and build capacity at HSIs.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.

在改善本科 STEM 教育：西班牙裔服务机构 (HSI) 计划的支持下，纽约 HSI 中心项目旨在通过五年的时间为纽约市地区 14 所多元化且入学率高的纽约州立大学和纽约市立大学社区学院带来系统性改进该中心的活动将有助于解决社区大学在尝试建设机构变革能力时所面临的挑战。为参与学院的学生提供 STEM 渠道，为教师提供在不同环境中进行有效教学的工具，并寻求未来的赠款资金，以支持学生在 STEM 方面取得成功。该项目旨在通过提供 5 个项目来加强 14 所参与学院的 STEM 教育为期一年的计划：a) 教师在文化响应式教学方法方面的专业发展，以促进代表 HSI 中各种不同人才的学生在 STEM 方面取得成功；b) 资助指导，以提高 STEM 教师竞争性地寻求 NSF HSI 资助的能力更远通过研讨会和网络建设，文化响应式教学和相关项目改进，该项目利用参与式行动研究来帮助教师反思和发展他们的教学方法。参与性行动研究和资助培训的影响的调查结果将通过全国会议和网络研讨会广泛传播。结果也将通过纽约州立大学和纽约市立大学全系统会议传播。该项目由 HSI 计划资助，旨在加强本科生 STEM 教育、扩大 STEM 的参与并建设 HSI 的能力。该奖项的法定使命是通过利用基金会的智力优势和活动进行评估，认为值得支持。更广泛的影响审查标准。
