Knowledge Exchange
·
Establish multi-dimensional
communication pathways by which
o
knowledge developed in the CERSP
can be efficiently transferred to those who will implement it and/or benefit
from it, both within the commercial sector (including ongoing operations and the
venture capital community) and the educational sector
o
the views and needs outside the
CERSP are factored into our plans
o
governmental agencies are apprised
of our accomplishments, plans and needs
o
public support is maintained by
informing citizens and getting feedback regarding the implications and
importance of CERSP work
·
Leverage resources of the Center to
o
establish individual and organizational partnerships
o
provide facilities enabling development of CERSP-invented
technology
in
order promptly to convert technical knowledge into successful, sustainable
processes and enterprises enjoying public support

RICHES Initiative
The RICHES
initiative seeks to
Reach
Industry, Communities and Higher Education Students
in
order to provide an appreciation of the environmental, technological, and
health benefits of CO2-related science. We will develop and fund several summer intern programs at
our five major CERSP sites and convey appreciation of green chemistry,
especially as practiced at CERSP, to industry and the general public.
In the process, we seek to increase
· the number of underrepresented groups
in sciences, focusing on higher education
· the
capabilities of our students through enhanced educational opportunities
· understanding
of CERSP and green chemistry through newsletters, news releases, exhibits,
publications and presentations
· utilization
of CERSP-derived technology through strong partnerships
· the
value of our Center to society and
· appreciation of the value of
green chemistry and our Center among legislators and policy makers

Summary
Establishing multi-dimensional
communication pathways is a key element of the innovation process. It is
important that the industrial sector be aware of our capabilities and have input
to our research program. Through public outreach initiatives we hope to improve
understanding of how technology contributes to quality of life and how
sustainability issues are part of the “life-style equation”. We hope to
empower people to make informed decisions that will affect
their quality of life. CERSP knowledge exchange objectives are achieved
through outreach activities to industry, communities and governmental officials.
Industrial outreach programs provide vital technological assistance for today's
economy while laying the groundwork for future growth and knowledge. Knowledge
transfer is further achieved through publications, the media, demonstrations,
presentations, tours, partnerships, public forums, the Internet and workshops.

Math and Physical
Science Fellows
This
is a new program to establish a Math and Physical Sciences-Internship in Public
Science Education (MPS-IPSE) in the area of Carbon Dioxide in Nature and
Technology. The program is
partially funded by NSF and is a joint effort of the Kenan Institute for
Engineering, Technology & Science at NC State University, the NSF Science
and Technology Center for Environmentally Responsible Solvents and Processes (CERSP)
led by UNC Chapel Hill, and the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences.
Outstanding math and science K-12 teachers from the Research Triangle
area in North Carolina will be recruited as MPS Fellows for a three-year
program. During this time period,
the Fellows will have summer internships at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences
and the NSF CERSP facilities at NC State University and the UNC Chapel Hill.
Scientists in the CERSP and staff in the museum will serve as mentors
throughout the three-year program to help the teachers develop novel curriculum
tools for K-12 education, and educational programs and displays for the museum
public. At the same time, the
teachers will be able to obtain graduate credit for advanced degrees in
education at local universities, and they will participate in professional and
personal leadership training programs throughout the academic year.
Significant leverage will be provided through the recruitment efforts and
partnerships of a recently established program of the Kenan Institute called the
Fellows for Curriculum and Leadership Development.
The major theme to be developed by MPS Fellows is: Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
in Nature and Technology.
MPS
Fellows selected from North Carolina’s brightest and most committed teachers
will collaborate with the NC Museum of Natural Sciences staff to explore new
ways of describing and teaching the natural role of CO2 in our world.
The CO2 focus of this collaboration will utilize computer facilities
and the existing educational initiatives at the museum such as exhibits entitled
Mountains to the Sea and
Coastal Carolina both designed to engage a community of learners in
experiential learning. MPS Fellows
will also collaborate with CERSP scientists to explore the problems associated
with processing in conventional solvents and the potential benefits of
processing in CO2. Manufacturing
of integrated circuits and synthesis and processing of polymers are the subject
areas that MPS Fellows will explore to understand the potential benefits of
using CO2 in cutting edge science and technology. MPS Fellows will develop and implement curriculum tools as
well as Museum hands-on exhibit hall carts, learning stations, and publications
to link current scientific opportunities in CO2 to students in the
classrooms and the general public. Finally, the MPS Fellows will provide
comprehensive process, outcome, and impact evaluations about the program. The
proposed activities of this proposal will meet many of the strategic goals of
the MPS-IPSE Fellowship Program:
·
provide valuable training for MPS
Fellows by establishing a close working relationship with scientists from
CERSP and staff from the NC Museum of Natural Sciences
·
provide valuable experiences for MPS
Fellows that will enrich their classrooms
·
provide NC Museum of Natural Sciences
staff the opportunity to collaborate with talented interns and research
scientists who bring new skills and ideas to the development of museum
programming and exhibits
·
provide opportunities for CERSP
scientists to bring their latest scientific research results to the public
and gain experience in effective public outreach and education
