This BIORETS Site (called Research Experiences for Advancing Curriculum on Hawaiian Ecosystem Sciences or REACHES) award to Bishop Museum in Honolulu, Hawaii, will support the training of eight teachers each year for seven weeks during the summer and at least two weeks during the academic year. High school and community college teachers from Hawaii’s underserved schools will be recruited during 2024-2026. A disproportionate number of Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander students attend schools with majority population of people excluded because of their ethnicity, race, or sex (PEERS). Engaging PEERS expands capacity and opportunities for participation in conservation science and STEM fields through place-based authentic research experiences that allow for use of Hawaiian examples for learning science standards. In collaboration with the Hawaii Department of Education (HDOE) and other partners, teachers will deepen their science literacy and understanding to translate these experiences into classroom curriculum and hands-on research activities, engaging a broader diversity of students. Participants will come from diverse cultural, economic, and generational backgrounds, and effective learning occurs where they feel welcome, accepted, and seen. The PIs and partners for REACHES will strive to create a safe learning environment and provide internal (mentors) and external (human resources) support network to promote diversity and inclusivity.The thematic focus of REACHES is on ecosystem sciences through the lens of land snail ecology, conservation, and Hawaiian cultural values. Teachers will be integrated into captive rearing and genomic research in Malacology and the Pacific Center for Molecular Biodiversity at the museum to address questions about life history, diet, behavior, and biodiversity. Hawaiian cultural practitioners will provide training for incorporating cultural practices and values into research and teaching, thus expanding participation and helping perpetuate "aloha aina" (love of the land). Applications and requirements will be available on the NSF ETAP site with links disseminated via the HDOE website. Applications will be reviewed by PIs, cultural practitioners, and education specialists, and applicants will be interviewed prior to selecting participants in the program.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.

这个Biorets网站（称为夏威夷生态系统科学课程的研究经验）授予夏威夷檀香山的Bishop Museum的奖项，将在夏季和学年至少在至少两周内对八名教师进行培训。来自夏威夷服务不足的学校的高中和社区大学教师将在2024 - 2026年期间招募。由于种族，种族或性行为（同龄人），夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民的本地学生数量不成比例。吸引同龄人通过基于地方的真实研究经验扩大了参与保护科学和STEM领域的能力和机会，这些研究经验允许将夏威夷示例用于学习科学标准。与夏威夷教育部（HDOE）和其他合作伙伴合作，教师将加深他们的科学素养和理解，以将这些经验转化为课堂课程和动手研究活动，从而吸引更多的学生。参与者将来自各种文化，经济和世代背景，有效的学习发生在他们感到受欢迎，接受和看到的地方。 PIS和PARTENS的合作伙伴将努力创造一个安全的学习环境，并提供内部（导师）和外部（人力资源）支持网络，以促进多样性和包容性。覆盖范围的主题重点是通过土地蜗牛生态，保护，保护和夏威夷文化价值观的镜头对生态系统科学。教师将被纳入疟原虫养殖和基因组研究，并在博物馆的太平洋生物多样性中心纳入有关生活历史，饮食，行为和生物多样性的问题。夏威夷文化从业人员将提供将文化实践和价值观纳入研究和教学的培训，从而扩大参与并帮助延续“ Aloha Aina”（对土地的热爱）。应用程序和要求将在NSF ETAP网站上提供，并通过HDOE网站传播链接。 PIS，文化实践者和教育专家将对申请进行审查，并将在选择该计划的参与之前接受采访。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过基金会的知识分子的智力优点和更广泛的影响来诚实地认为，通过评估诚实地支持了审查标准。
