PROJECT SUMMARY The U-RISE program at the University of Puerto Rico Cayey (UPR-C) provides research training to i) broaden exposure to biomedical research careers, ii) strengthen science identity, and iii) enhance scientific information literacy, learning, research, and quantitative and computational skills of undergraduate Hispanic students at UPR-C. The U-RISE program will directly impact 24 undergraduate students through a wide range of activities. Five program components have been designed employing evidence-based approaches to provide training to undergraduate students: Research Seminars and Workshops (RSW), Learning and Research Skills (LRS), Undergraduate Research Experiences (URE), Quantitative and Computational skills (QCS), and Evidence- Based Teaching and Mentoring (EBT/EBM). The evaluation of each component will be monitored by an external evaluator working with the activity coordinators, program directors, and an Advisory Committee. In the RSW component, visiting alumni scientists will serve as role models and offer seminars and workshops to all science students at UPR-C to broaden their exposure to biomedical research careers and strengthen their science identity. In the LRS component, 12 sophomore college students will start engaging in research by participating in scientific literature, learning, and laboratory research activities. In the URE component, the trainees will engage more extensively in research by participating in an off-campus research project during the summer (24 students) and an on-campus research experience during the academic year. In the QCS component, the junior/senior students will enhance their skills to analyze and present numerical data, reduce problem complexity, think in terms of computational algorithmics, and automate tasks computationally within the natural sciences. The LRS and QCS educational activities use collaborative learning to accommodate differences in preparation among trainees. The EBT/EBM component will facilitate faculty training in evidence-based teaching and mentoring using Blended Learning Modules in EBT and Lesson Study cycles. In the EBT/EBM component, the fundamental aspects of multiple teaching and learning areas will be explored and implemented over one year. This long-term faculty training program will provide the sustained and lasting efforts required for faculty to change their teaching practices. These five integrated program components of the U-RISE at UPR-Cayey are designed to facilitate the completion of baccalaureate degrees and the transition into and completion of biomedical research-focused higher degree programs.

项目概要 波多黎各卡伊大学 (UPR-C) 的 U-RISE 项目提供研究培训，以 i) 拓宽 接触生物医学研究职业，ii) 加强科学认同，以及 iii) 增强科学信息 西班牙裔本科生的读写能力、学习、研究以及定量和计算技能 UPR-C。 U-RISE 计划将通过广泛的活动直接影响 24 名本科生。 已设计了五个项目组成部分，采用循证方法为 本科生：研究研讨会和讲习班（RSW）、学习和研究技能（LRS）、 本科生研究经验（URE）、定量和计算技能（QCS）以及证据- 基于教学和指导（EBT/EBM）。每个组件的评估将由外部监控 评估员与活动协调员、项目主管和咨询委员会合作。在RSW 组成部分，来访的校友科学家将充当榜样，并为所有科学界提供研讨会和讲习班 UPR-C 的学生扩大他们对生物医学研究职业的接触并加强他们的科学知识 身份。在 LRS 部分，12 名大二学生将通过参加 科学文献、学习和实验室研究活动。在 URE 部分，学员将 通过在夏季参加校外研究项目来更广泛地参与研究（24 学生）和学年期间的校园研究经验。在 QCS 组件中， 低年级/高年级学生将提高分析和呈现数值数据的技能，降低问题的复杂性， 从计算算法的角度思考，并在自然科学中以计算方式自动化任务。 LRS 和 QCS 教育活动利用协作学习来适应准备方面的差异 练习生之中。 EBT/EBM 部分将促进教师循证教学培训和 在 EBT 和课程学习周期中使用混合学习模块进行指导。在 EBT/EBM 组件中， 将在一年内探索和实施多个教学领域的基本方面。 这一长期的教师培训计划将为教师变革提供持续和持久的努力 他们的教学实践。 UPR-Cayey 的 U-RISE 的这五个集成项目组件是专门设计的 促进学士学位的完成以及生物医学学位的过渡和完成 以研究为重点的高等学位课程。
