Accomplishment Based Renewal Funding Proposal To Mathematics and Science Education in Rural America: An Evaluative Study of NSF's Rural Systemic Initiative [REC-0129898]

第0343712号提案是现有评估研究的延续，旨在审查农村系统倡议（RSI）计划的影响。自2001年10月1日起，系统研究公司一直致力于这项为期两年的美国国家科学基金会资助，题为“美国农村的数学和科学教育：美国国家科学基金会农村系统倡议的评估研究”。因此，建议要求支持在2002-03学年继续收集数据。2002-2003年数据的收集和分析将完成对RSI进行了十年的研究和评估。由于一年的延期，目前的资助活动将得到扩大，包括：开发、收集和编写RKID-2004农村数学和科学指标报告；2004年出版带有额外指标数据的RSI案例报告；RSI/RKID网站升级，以加强沟通、RKID管理和传播；RSI/RKID年度研讨会；RSI咨询小组会议；通过印刷、光盘和网络传播研究结果。

Proposal No. 0343712 is a continuation of an existing evaluation study designed to review the impact of the Rural Systemic Initiative (RSI) Program. Since October 1, 2001, Systemic Research, Inc. has been working on this two-year NSF grant titled "Mathematics and Science Education in Rural America: An Evaluative Study of NSF's Rural Systemic Initiative." Hence, the proposal requests support to continue collecting data through the 2002-03 school year. The collection and analysis of the 2002-2003 data will complete a decade of ongoing research and evaluation of the RSI. The current activities of the grant to be expanded as a result of a one-year extension are:Development, collection, and compilation of RKID-2004Rural Math and Science Indicator Report:2004Publication of updated RSI Case Stories with additional indicator dataRSI/RKID web site upgrade for enhanced communication, RKID management, and disseminationRSI/RKID Annual WorkshopRSI Advisory Panel MeetingDissemination of study results through printed copy, CD-ROM, and web.
