项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal describes a new initiative to educate graduate students in Biosciences, BioInformatics, and BioEngineering about Diabetes. The specific objectives of the program are: 1. To extend, improve and teach a recently developed, novel diabetes curriculum. This curriculum is designed to introduce graduate students in various disciplines, including engineering, informatics, and biosciences, to diabetes mellitus. The central learning objective is to teach skills that ultimately facilitate the application of the students' primary discipline to unsolved problems in diabetes. 2. To develop a mechanism for interdisciplinary student teams to pursue diabetes-related inventions to the prototype stage. 3. To develop electronic courseware to serve as a framework for this diabetes curriculum at Stanford University. Web-based materials will support administrative functions, such as course organization and communication about assignments. Importantly, the electronic materials will also provide supplementary educational opportunities for students, including review of the in-class sessions, links to relevant resources, self-assessment tools, and an on-line discussion forum. 4. To modify and extend the electronic courseware such that it may serve as a framework for development of similar courses at other institutions. A number of features will be added to the courseware for use at sites outside of Stanford. Chief among them will be an electronic instructor's manual, and directions for video capture and incorporation in real-time of lectures at other schools. 5. To develop, validate, and refine evaluation tools to be used in association with the diabetes curriculum. Achievement of this aim will allow on-going assessment of the efficacy of each of the components of the curriculum, both in terms of student performance and in terms of course performance. In addition, we will develop approaches for longer-view analysis of the extent to which the course is meeting its objectives. These tools, and instructions for customizing them for use at other schools, will also be included in the electronic courseware. The long term goal of this proposal is to recruit individuals with diverse backgrounds into translational research with relevance to diabetes or related conditions. Achievement of this goal has the potential to contribute to new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for diabetes and related conditions.

描述（由申请人提供）：该建议描述了一项新的计划，以教育研究生有关糖尿病的生物科学，生物信息学和生物工程。该程序的具体目标是： 1。扩展，改进和教授最近开发的新型糖尿病课程。该课程旨在将包括工程，信息学和生物科学在内的各个学科的研究生介绍给糖尿病。中央学习目标是教授最终促进学生主要学科在糖尿病中未解决问题的技能。 2。为跨学科的学生团队开发一种机制，将与糖尿病相关的发明追求原型阶段。 3。开发电子课程以作为斯坦福大学的糖尿病课程的框架。基于Web的材料将支持管理职能，例如课程组织和有关作业的沟通。重要的是，电子材料还将为学生提供补充教育机会，包括审查课堂课程，相关资源的链接，自我评估工具和在线讨论论坛。 4。修改和扩展电子课程以使其可以作为开发其他机构类似课程的框架。将在斯坦福以外的站点使用的课程中添加许多功能。其中首席将是电子讲师的手册，以及其他学校实时的视频捕获和融合的指示。 5。开发，验证和完善评估工具与糖尿病课程相关。实现这一目标将允许在学生绩效和当然表现方面对课程组成部分的功效进行持续评估。此外，我们将开发方法，以了解该课程达到其目标的程度的长期分析。这些工具以及用于在其他学校使用的指令，也将包含在电子课程中。该提案的长期目标是将具有不同背景的个人招募到与糖尿病或相关状况相关的转化研究中。实现这一目标有可能为糖尿病和相关疾病的新诊断和治疗方法做出贡献。
