ITR: Research, Curriculum and Partnerships for Broadening the Information Technology Pipeline

robert schnabel科罗拉多大学itr：拓宽信息技术管道的研究、课程和伙伴关系该项目支持一项合作，以探索一种新的多媒体范式，为网络信息时代的职业和生活教育学生。通过研究和课程交付，这项合作将探索新的课程，让来自不同学科的学生获得理解和技能，为他们成为现代信息技术劳动力的一部分做好准备。该项目将在两个关键方面拓宽信息技术管道：通过增加学科和能力的多样性，学生可以从中获得信息技术劳动力，并将这种方法应用于种族多样化的人口。该项目将开发技术、艺术和媒体（TAM）的多学科课程和研究。与TAM课程的开发和评估相关的研究有四个组成部分：1)计算机和认知科学研究，解决在教育中使用信息技术的方法，这将有助于确定课程的内容和交付。2)关于网络信息时代对我们社会的影响的社会科学研究，这与课程的关键部分有关；3)关于信息技术在K-12教育中的应用的教育研究，这将影响TAM课程的教育课程设置；4)TAM课程实现目标的形成性和总结性评估。

EIA-0082915Schnabel, RobertUniversity of ColoradoITR: Research, Curriculum and Partnerships for Broadening theInformation Technology PipelineThis project supports a collaboration to explore a new multimedia paradigmfor educating students for careers and lives in the networked informationage. Through research and course delivery, this collaboration will explorenew curricula that allow students from a wide variety of disciplines toobtain the understanding and skills that prepare them to be a part of themodern information technology workforce. The project will broaden theinformation technology pipeline in two critical ways: by increasing thediversity of academic disciplines and aptitudes from which students canenter the information technology workforce, and by applying this approachto a racially diverse population.The project will develop a multidisciplinary curriculum and research intechnology, arts, and media (TAM). The research associated with thedevelopment and evaluation of the TAM curriculum has four components: 1)computer and cognitive science research addressing approaches to usinginformation technology in education that will help determine both thecontent and the delivery of the curriculum. 2) social science researchabout the impacts of the networked information age upon our society that islinked to a key portion of the curriculum, 3) education research about theuse of information technology in K-12 education that will impact theeducation course offerings of the TAM curriculum, and 4) formative andsummative evaluations of the TAM curriculum in achieving its goals.
