摘要：《环境影响评估0244604》，印第安纳大学，西明州。这个项目的目的是对NSF信息技术工作组(ITWF)计划三年历史上资助的40个项目进行荟萃分析。这一分析将比较、对比和巩固ITWF项目与IT劳动力领域的其他研究和实施项目的知识。最终产品将是一份提供分析的报告，该报告计划帮助指导对这些主题的进一步研究，并向决策者(NSF和其他地方、州和联邦机构；地方、州和联邦各级的政策制定者；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)建议行动。

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).
