DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): DukeMed Activated (DukeMed A+) is an integrated science enrichment program for disadvantaged (DIS) and under-represented minority (URM) students in Durham Public Schools. A seamless continuum of staged components, the program spans grades 3-12 and is designed to: generate and sustain interest in the sciences; build academic skills including verbal, written, critical thinking, and analytic; instill a sense of responsibility to self, peers, community, and society; cultivate capacities for leadership and teamwork; and encourage pursuit of further science education and science-related careers, with a focus on healthcare and biomedical research. Using proven, age-appropriate methods, it engages students in progressively more intensive and challenging activities; methods include inquiry-based learning, hands-on/experiential exercises, mentoring, near-peer mentoring, team-based research projects, direct exposures through immersions and field trips, and cultivation of leadership skills. Creating a "pipeline" that prepares DIS/URM students for advanced science education and/or training, DukeMed A+ comprises 4 components, all of which have been tested. DukeMed Elementary provides experiential learning sessions for all 3rd graders in 6 schools, a weekend program for 4th graders, and a hands-on activity in a Duke lab for 5th graders. BOOST offers school-based activities to full science classes in 6th grade, plus one-on-one mentoring, exposures/field trips, and research activities to a subset of motivated DIS/URM students. BOOST XL engages 7th-9th graders in increasingly complex problem-solving and team- based research, with continued mentoring. Scientifica involves 8th-12th graders in research. An overarching theme, Mind and Body, unifies these program components. Subthemes addressed at each stage (e.g., neurobiology, motion, nutrition/metabolism) are aligned with North Carolina grade-specific science curricula. Teacher professional development and family/community involvement, both major elements of DukeMed A+, create a backdrop of student support and also enhance science teachers' knowledge base and skills, and educate the community about health, cutting-edge science, and research.

描述（由申请人提供）：DukeMed Activated (DukeMed A+) 是一项针对达勒姆公立学校弱势群体 (DIS) 和代表性不足的少数族裔 (URM) 学生的综合科学强化计划。该项目是一个无缝连续的阶段性组成部分，涵盖 3 至 12 年级，旨在： 产生并维持对科学的兴趣；培养学术技能，包括口头、书面、批判性思维和分析能力；灌输对自我、同伴、社区和社会的责任感；培养领导能力和团队合作能力；鼓励追求进一步的科学教育和与科学相关的职业，重点是医疗保健和生物医学研究。它使用经过验证的、适合年龄的方法，让学生参与逐渐更加密集和具有挑战性的活动；方法包括探究式学习、实践/体验式练习、指导、近同伴指导、基于团队的研究项目、通过沉浸和实地考察的直接接触以及领导技能的培养。 DukeMed A+ 创建了一个“管道”，让 DIS/URM 学生为高级科学教育和/或培训做好准备，它由 4 个组件组成，所有组件都经过了测试。 DukeMed 小学为 6 所学校的所有三年级学生提供体验式学习课程，为四年级学生提供周末计划，并为五年级学生在杜克实验室提供实践活动。 BOOST 为六年级的完整科学课程提供校本活动，并为部分积极进取的 DIS/URM 学生提供一对一辅导、接触/实地考察和研究活动。 BOOST XL 让 7 至 9 年级学生参与日益复杂的问题解决和团队研究，并提供持续指导。 Scientifica 邀请 8 至 12 年级的学生参与研究。 一个总体主题“心灵与身体”将这些程序组件统一起来。每个阶段涉及的子主题（例如神经生物学、运动、营养/代谢）均与北卡罗来纳州特定年级的科学课程保持一致。教师专业发展和家庭/社区参与是 DukeMed A+ 的两个主要要素，它们创造了学生支持的背景，也增强了科学教师的知识基础和技能，并教育社区有关健康、尖端科学和研究的知识。
