DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): As atherosclerosis, obesity, and sedentary habits are known to be formed in childhood and adolescence, cardiovascular education among our youth today could have a major impact on reducing the incidence and prevalence of heart disease in the future. The Youth Take Heart (YTH) program is a collaborative project between the University of Washington Engineered Biomaterials Engineering Research Center (UWEB ERC), The Hope Heart Institute (HHI), and the Washington Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) program. Phase I will focus on four main components: 1. Development/testing of an interactive Internet and CD-ROM program titled "Guy Simplant: The Heart" (the character "Guy Simplant" was created by UWEB to introduce biomaterials to middle school students) to teach about the anatomy and physiology of the heart, heart disease prevention, and newly emerging bioengineering solutions for repairing or replacing the heart; 2. Development of a corresponding cardiovascular health laboratory kit and curriculum module by leading health/science teachers and scientists; 3. Development of a YTH public lecture and parent training series and; 4. Creation of a YTH newsletter and brochures. Phase II will focus on the dissemination of the Guy Simplant game, curriculum, laboratory kits, newsletters, brochures, and implementation of the lecture series using a collaborative model of marketing and dissemination. We will primarily target approximately 5,000 MESA students (80% of whom are under-represented minorities and women). Our ultimate goal is to reach all youth in WA and the nation specifically targeting under-served populations who traditionally lack information on careers in math, engineering, medicine and science, and who are also at higher risk for cardiovascular disease. The project will fulfill WA State's Essential Academic Learning Requirements in Science and Health 1-3 and provide tools for understanding scientific concepts and principles. The project uses the federal government's Healthy People 2010 initiative guidelines, which challenge individuals and communities to take steps to ensure good health and a long life are enjoyed by all. Youth Take Heart will help enhance the cardiovascular health and quality of life for numerous students through the teaching of medical management, prevention, and control of risk factors for heart disease.

描述（由申请人提供）： 由于已知在童年和青春期形成动脉粥样硬化，肥胖和久坐的习惯，当今我们青年的心血管教育可能会对未来降低心脏病的发病率和患病率产生重大影响。青年掌握的计划是华盛顿大学工程生物材料工程研究中心（UWEB ERC），希望心脏研究所（HHI）和华盛顿数学，工程，科学，科学成就（MESA）计划之间的合作项目。 Phase I will focus on four main components: 1. Development/testing of an interactive Internet and CD-ROM program titled "Guy Simplant: The Heart" (the character "Guy Simplant" was created by UWEB to introduce biomaterials to middle school students) to teach about the anatomy and physiology of the heart, heart disease prevention, and newly emerging bioengineering solutions for repairing or replacing the heart; 2。由领先的健康/科学教师和科学家开发相应的心血管卫生实验室套件和课程模块； 3。开发第三届公开演讲和家长培训系列和； 4。创建了第三通讯和小册子。第二阶段将着重于使用营销和传播的协作模型的讲座系列的Simper游戏，课程，实验室套件，新闻通讯，小册子的传播。我们将主要针对约5,000名MESA学生（其中80％的人为少数族裔和妇女）。我们的最终目标是接触到西澳州的所有青年和国家专门针对服务不足的人群，这些人群传统上缺乏数学，工程，医学和科学领域的职业信息，并且他们患心血管疾病的风险也更高。该项目将满足WA州在科学和健康中的基本学术学习要求1-3，并提供理解科学概念和原理的工具。该项目使用联邦政府的《 2010年健康人民倡议指南》，挑战个人和社区采取措施，以确保所有人享受健康和长寿。青年人振作起来将通过教学，预防和控制心脏病的危险因素来帮助众多学生增强心血管健康和生活质量。
