DLI-Phase 2: Developing a Prototype National Digital Library for Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology Education

摘要IIS-9980116 Agogino，Alice 加州伯克利大学 399,999美元- 24个月。为科学、数学、工程和技术教育开发一个原型国家数字图书馆这是一个标准奖项。 该项目为科学、数学、工程和技术教育国家数字图书馆开发了一个原型。 它将成为一种超越传统学术图书馆的数字形式的国家资源。 它将成为一个数字化学习空间，为包括教师，学生和终身学习者的SMETE学习者社区提供服务。 该项目建立在以前的赠款，开发了国家工程教育交付系统（NEEDS）的原型。 NEEDS将成为一个扩大的SMETE收集和内容网关的业务试验平台。 正在举行一系列焦点小组会议，以确定用户需求，并与其他国家数字项目建立一系列伙伴关系，以将NEEDS试验平台扩展到多个学科。 该项目的目标是： 1)开发一个评估和定义用户需求的模型，并使用该模型来定义系统规格，2）促进内容和收藏品用户之间的互动，以及3）在现有学科群体之间建立跨学科桥梁。

Abstract IIS-9980116Agogino, Alice University of California - Berkeley $399,999 - 24 mos.Developing a Prototype National Digital Library for Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology Education This is a standard award. The project develops a prototype for a national digital library for Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology Education (SMETE). It is to be a national resource that goes beyond a traditional academic library in digital form. It is to be a digital learning space, serving a community of SMETE learners that encompasses faculty, students, and lifelong learners. This project builds on previous grants that developed the prototype for a National Engineering Education Delivery System (NEEDS). NEEDS will be the operational testbed for an expanded gateway to SMETE collections and content. A series of focus groups is being held to define user needs, and a set of partnerships are being established with other national digital projects to extend the NEEDS testbed across multiple disciplines. The goals of the project are: 1) to develop a model for assessing and defining user needs and use that model to define the system specifications, 2) to facilitate interaction between users of the content and collections, and 3) to build an interdisciplinary bridge across existing disciplinary communities.
