项目摘要

The University of Nebraska Medical Center will continue to leverage the trust and cooperative spirit that we have garnered working with tribal schools and communities in Nebraska and South Dakota to develop, implement, and evaluate science curriculum, outreach activities, and training experiences targeting Native American students in grades K-12 and their teachers. The long-term goals of this project are to promote student interest in the sciences, foster a more science-literate public, and ultimately increase the number of Native Americans entering health and science careers. Advancing the health of Native American communities is the ultimate aim of every aspect of this project. Improved science teaching and heightened awareness of health careers will encourage students to enter these careers and hopefully bring these skills back to their communities. Public outreach that increases health literacy and healthy living will promote better personal health decisions. This supplement request seeks to expand our SEPA program to include the development of novel online modules that introduce students to concepts in virology and immunology with a specific focus on SARS-CoV-2 and vaccine development and hesitancy as has been observed in different populations during this pandemic. Vaccine hesitancy is not limited to this era of the coronavirus pandemic. Thus, an increase in general knowledge will be beneficial as the world returns to normal and as the prospect of future outbreaks begins to recede in people’s memories.

内布拉斯加州大学医学中心将继续利用信托和我们已经与部落学校和社区合作的合作精神内布拉斯加州和南达科他州开发，实施和评估科学课程，推广活动和针对美洲原住民学生的培训经验 K-12年级及其老师。该项目的长期目标是促进学生对科学的兴趣，培养更科学的公众，然后最终增加了进入健康和科学的美洲原住民的数量职业。提高美洲原住民社区的健康是最终目标这个项目的各个方面。改善科学教学并提高了对医疗职业将鼓励学生进入这些职业，并希望将这些职业带来技能回到社区。公众推广，提高了健康素养和健康的生活将促进更好的个人健康决策。此补充要求旨在扩大我们的SEPA计划，以包括开发新颖的在线模块向学生介绍了病毒学和免疫学的概念，特别关注 SARS-COV-2和疫苗的发育和犹豫，如在这个大流行期间，人口不同。疫苗的犹豫不限于这个时代冠状病毒大流行。这是一般知识的增加将是有益的世界恢复正常，随着未来爆发的前景开始收到人们的记忆。
