Project Summary/Abstract This innovative project will replicate the successful Health Sciences & Technology Academy from West Virginia, with important adaptations for our purposes, in rural Alabama (AL). This adaption will be called Health Sciences & Technology Academy-Alabama (HSTA-AL). The long-term goal of this project is to build a more diverse nursing, nurse faculty, nurse scientist and other biomedical professions workforce from among rural, underserved, primarily African American, economically disadvantaged high school students in AL who will become the first in their families to graduate from college. This goal will be accomplished by implementing the HSTA-AL program to provide professional development to teachers designed to help teachers build science content and pedagogical skills. Teachers will then guide students toward STEM fields by helping them learn to conduct citizen science. These teachers can also transfer their learned skills for use in teaching other high school students. To teach research skills to teachers and students, we will focus on conditions including obesity and related cardiovascular conditions, risk behaviors, and opioid use that disproportionately affect underserved AL communities. It is anticipated that through HSTA-AL activities, health literacy will be built among the students and community members in these rural counties. The specific aims for this project are to 1. Establish community led leadership teams comprised of 100% community members in each rural county partner, and a joint leadership team for the state comprised of at least 51% community members to promote community ownership of the HSTA-AL program. 2. Provide annual professional development for 5 teachers and 5 preservice teachers per year across targeted communities for the purpose of promoting science and research skills for HSTA-AL and other students to increase the pipeline of high school graduates from rural areas into university STEM education, some of whom will choose nursing. 3. Provide summer camps annually for 50 students to promote interest and skills needed for engagement in citizen science addressing issues related to health disparities in rural AL and to promote exposure to the university environment, near-peer mentors, STEM education, nurses, nursing education opportunities, advanced nursing degrees, nursing science, and other biomedical professions. 4. Provide a club experience led by teachers for 95 high school students across 5 years for the purpose of exposing students to STEM fields in general, nursing, and nursing science by engaging students in community-based participatory research /citizen science addressing issues related to health disparities in their communities. 5. Compare the outcomes of HSTA-AL to HSTA for psychometric measures known to predict workforce development in biomedical fields to determine if replication of the HSTA program in a rural, primarily African American, economically disadvantaged population is feasible and effective. If HSTA-AL achieves similar outcomes to HSTA in West Virginia, we plan to expand this program across AL and seek funding to support HSTA-AL students’ college and graduate school education.

项目摘要/摘要 这个创新的项目将复制西部成功的健康科学技术学院 弗吉尼亚州，在阿拉巴马州粗糙的阿拉巴马州进行重要改编。这种改编将称为健康 科学技术学院 - 阿拉巴马州（HSTA-AL）。该项目的长期目标是建立更多 来自农村中 服务不足的，非裔美国人，经济上处于不利地位的高中生 成为他们家庭中第一个从大学毕业的人。这个目标将通过实施 HSTA-AL计划为旨在帮助教师建立科学的教师提供专业发展 内容和教学技能。然后，老师将通过帮助他们学习来指导学生进入STEM领域 进行公民科学。这些老师还可以转移他们学习的技能，以用于教其他高等教育 学校学生。为教师和学生的教师研究技能，我们将专注于包括 肥胖和相关的心血管疾病，风险行为和阿片类药物的使用不成比例 服务不足的社区。预计通过HSTA-AL活动，将建立健康素养 在这些农村县的学生和社区成员中。该项目的具体目标是1。 建立社区领导的领导团队在每个乡村完成了100％的社区成员 合作伙伴和国家联合领导团队完成至少51％的社区成员来促进 HSTA-AL计划的社区所有权。 2。为5位老师提供年度专业发展 以及针对性社区的每年5名职务教师，以促进科学和 HSTA-AL和其他学生增加农村高中毕业生的研究技能 大学STEM教育的领域，其中一些人会选择护士。 3。每年提供夏令营 让50名学生促进参与公民科学所需的兴趣和技能解决问题 与Al的健康分配有关，并促进对大学环境的接触，近对 导师，STEM教育，护士，护士教育机会，高级护理学位，护士 科学和其他生物医学专业人员。 4。提供由95个高中老师领导的俱乐部经验 在5年中的学生，目的是让学生一般而言茎领域，护士和护士 科学通过让学生参与基于社区的参与研究 /公民科学解决问题 与其社区的健康差异有关。 5。将HSTA-AL的结果与HSTA的结果进行比较 可以预测生物医学领域劳动力发展的心理测量指标，以确定复制是否复制 在一个粗糙的非裔美国人，经济困扰的人口中的HSTA计划是可行的 有效。如果HSTA-AL取得与西弗吉尼亚州HSTA相似的结果，我们计划扩大该计划 整个AL并寻求资金来支持HSTA-AL学生学院和研究生院教育。
