 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant):To build and diversify a workforce that meets the nation's biomedical, behavioral and clinical research needs, the NIH invests in projects that provide science and health-related educational activities at the precollege level. These projects focus on students and teachers at the pre-kindergarten to grade 12 (P-12) level who come from underserved communities. The annual NIH SciEd Conference brings together individuals involved in these health and medicine- focused P-12 Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) projects. This conference, which originally was the PI meeting for the Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) program, has been held annually since 1991. Three years ago (in 2012) the conference expanded to include awardees and staff from all NIH- funded P-12 STEM programs. Each year 200-250 individuals participate in the conference, including PIs and Co-PIs from all NIH-funded P-12 STEM projects, project staff and evaluators, P-12 teachers who participate in projects, NIH staff, and representatives of other federal agencies involved in P-12 STEM education, including the Department of Education, NASA, NOAA and NSF. To the best of our knowledge, the annual NIH SciEd Conference is the only federally-funded P-12 STEM program that actively includes all of the key STEM agency programs. It thus plays an important role in interagency communication and building synergistic interactions among projects funded by different agencies. The goal of each 2.5-day NIH SciEd conference is to provide a forum for learning, sharing, dialogue, and networking among conference participants. This is accomplished via plenary, breakout and poster sessions, and networking opportunities. The outcomes of the conferences include higher quality projects and project evaluations, a reduced incidence of projects "reinventing the wheel," and the development of collaborations between NIH-funded projects as well as synergistic interactions with P-12 projects and programs funded by the other federal STEM agencies. Specific Aims for the NIH SciEd Conference are: SPECIFIC AIM 1: Provide updates on trends, issues and challenges in P-12 STEM education that are relevant to NIH awardees. SPECIFIC AIM 2: Inform and educate the NIH P-12 STEM community about rigorous evaluation models and instruments. SPECIFIC AIM 3: Provide opportunities for awardees to share information, best practices and challenges; provide mentoring for new SEPA projects; and support the formation of collaborations. The conference will be held in the Washington, DC area. It is planned by an Organizing Committee of NIH SciEd PIs and Key Personnel, which changes each year. A bound report for each conference provides a synopsis of all sessions and is disseminated to participants, federal P-12 STEM staff and senior NIH officials.

 描述（由应用程序提供）：为了建立和多样化，一支满足国家生物医学，行为和临床研究需求的劳动力，NIH研究了在提供科学和健康相关的教育活动的项目中。这些项目专注于来自服务不足社区的幼儿园前的学生和老师。一年一度的NIH录音会议汇集了参与这些健康和医学以P-12科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）项目的个人。该会议最初是自1991年以来每年举行的科学教育合作伙伴奖（SEPA）计划的PI会议。三年前（2012年），该会议扩展到包括所有NIH资助的P-12 STEM计划的获奖者和员工。每年有200 - 250名参加会议的人，包括所有NIH资助的P-12 STEM项目，项目人员和评估人员的PI和CO-PI，P-12的PIS，P-12教师，他们参加了项目，NIH员工，并代表其他参与P-12 STEM教育的联邦机构，包括NASA，NOAA和NSF，包括NASA，NOAA和NSF。据我们所知，一年一度的NIH辅助会议是唯一一个积极包括所有关键STEM代理计划的联邦政府资助的P-12 STEM计划。因此，它在交互交流和建立不同机构资助的项目之间的协同互动中起着重要作用。每次2.5天的NIH辅助会议的目标是为会议参与者提供一个学习，共享，对话和网络的论坛。这是通过全体会议，突破和海报会议以及网络机会来实现的。会议的结果包括更高质量的项目和项目评估，降低的项目“重塑车轮”的发生率以及NIH资助的项目之间的合作以及与P-12项目和与P-12项目的协同互动以及其他联邦STEM机构资助的计划的协同互动。 NIH录制会议的具体目标是：具体目标1：与NIH获奖者有关的P-12 STEM教育中的趋势，问题和挑战的最新信息。具体目标2：告知并教育NIH P-12 STEM社区有关严格的评估模型和工具。特定目标3：为获奖者提供分享信息，最佳实践和挑战的机会；为新的SEPA项目提供心理；并支持合作的形成。会议将在华盛顿特区举行。它是由NIH录音带和主要人员的组织委员会计划的，每年都会改变。每个会议的有限报告提供了所有会议的概要，并将参与者，联邦P-12 STEM员工和NIH高级官员传播。
