摘要：EIA 0244604，印第安纳州大学，WM. Aspray，PI本项目的目的是对NSF信息技术工作队（ITWF）计划资助的40个项目进行荟萃分析。 这项分析将比较，对比，并巩固与其他研究和实施项目的IT劳动力领域的ITWF项目的知识。 最终产品将是一份报告，提供分析，计划帮助指导对这些主题的进一步研究，以及向决策者（NSF和其他地方，州和联邦机构;地方，州和联邦级别的决策者;专业协会;学术界;以及希望在IT领域从事更有成效的职业的个人）提出行动建议。

ABSTRACT: EIA 0244604, Indiana Univ., Wm. Aspray, PIThe purpose of this project is to carry out a meta-analysis of the forty projects funded in NSF's Information Technology Work Force (ITWF) program over its three-year history. This analysis will compare, contrast, and consolidate the knowledge of the ITWF projects with other research and implementation projects in the IT workforce area. The final product is to be a report that provides analysis that is planned to help guide further research on these topics, as well as recommend actions to decision-makers (NSF and other local, state, and federal agencies; policymakers at local, state, and federal levels; professional societies; the academic community; and individuals desiring more productive careers in the IT area).
