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

EIA-0082915施纳贝尔，罗伯特科罗拉多大学ITR：研究，课程和伙伴关系，扩大信息技术管道这个项目支持合作，探索一个新的多媒体范例，教育学生的职业和生活在网络信息时代。 通过研究和课程交付，这种合作将探索更新的课程，让来自各种学科的学生获得的理解和技能，使他们成为现代信息技术劳动力的一部分。 该项目将在两个关键方面拓宽信息技术管道：增加学科和能力的多样性，使学生能够进入信息技术劳动力队伍，并将这种方法应用于种族多样化的人口。该项目将开发多学科课程和技术，艺术和媒体（TAM）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)社会科学研究网络信息时代对我们社会的影响，这与课程的关键部分有关，3）教育研究信息技术在K-12教育中的使用将影响TAM课程的教育课程，4）形成和总结性评估TAM课程实现其目标。

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.
