The "Florida Alliance for the Study of Expertise" (FASE) is designed to advance a science of Expertise Studies throughout the United States and throughout the world. FASE leverages the capabilities of world leaders in the study of expertise who are affiliated with Florida Universities with the overarching goal of understanding the nature and development of expertise. This funding will support the creation of a technical and collaborative infrastructure that will unite a multi-university and multi-disciplinary research partnership for the purposes of understanding and encouraging the scientific study of expertise. To understand learning at a fundamental level one must examine learning phenomena up to the level of expert achievement and theories of learning must take such phenomena into account. To address this need, FASE will integrate differing scientific methodologies to enhance the necessary complementarity of laboratory and field research. FASE will support collaboration across universities and across methodologies with the goal of fostering a synergistic combination of methods where the benefits of scientific approaches can be leveraged to improve hypothesis generation and testing along with theory development in a broader context. FASE focuses on the entire human system and how experience alters this system to produce meaningful learning that leads to the highest levels of achievement. FASE will facilitate the understanding of how it is that expert knowledge is acquired in order to determine both how it can be preserved and how others may be taught to engage in the requisite activities to similarly acquire such knowledge. FASE contributes to the goals of developing a science of learning by connecting learning research to scientific challenges and developing research communities that can capitalize on new opportunities. Further, the cross-section of scientific experience within this alliance allows FASE to address fundamental questions in learning by focusing on the physical, mental, and organizational capabilities associated with exceptional performance. As such, FASE is designed to benefit not only K-12 educational settings, but also workforce development for adult learning in government and industry. FASE is designed to support, not only basic science on how the human system achieves levels of exceptional performance, but also a unique cooperation between science and practice in order to ensure the rapid transition of new knowledge to education, industry, and to government. Last, FASE broadens the participation of underrepresented groups first, by establishing an association with Florida International University, an official minority-serving university so as to develop the capacity to support research and education for minority populations in science. Second, FASE develops the general educational infrastructure to support Webcasts and other distributable media for courses that can be offered for broad dissemination. In short, FASE will significantly contribute to national needs by elucidating how it is that experts achieve exceptional levels of performance while at the same time pursuing this on a pedagogical level.

“佛罗里达专门知识研究联盟”(FASE)旨在推动专门知识研究在全美和全世界的科学发展。FASE利用隶属于佛罗里达大学的世界领袖在研究专业知识方面的能力，以了解专业知识的性质和发展为首要目标。这笔资金将支持建立一个技术和协作基础设施，将多所大学和多学科研究伙伴关系联合起来，以了解和鼓励对专门知识的科学研究。要从根本上理解学习，就必须考察学习现象，直到专家成就的水平，学习理论必须考虑到这种现象。为了满足这一需要，FASE将整合不同的科学方法，以加强实验室和实地研究的必要互补性。FASE将支持跨大学和跨方法的合作，目标是促进方法的协同组合，其中科学方法的好处可以在更广泛的背景下改善假设生成和检验以及理论发展。FASE专注于整个人类系统，以及经验如何改变这个系统，以产生有意义的学习，从而实现最高水平的成就。FASE将有助于理解专家知识是如何获得的，以便确定如何保存这些知识，以及如何教导其他人从事同样获得这种知识的必要活动。FASE通过将学习研究与科学挑战联系起来，并发展能够利用新机会的研究社区，为发展学习科学的目标做出贡献。此外，该联盟内的科学经验的横截面使FASE能够通过关注与卓越表现相关的身体、精神和组织能力来解决学习中的基本问题。因此，FASE的目的不仅是为了使K-12教育机构受益，也是为了在政府和行业中为成人学习培养劳动力。FASE的目的不仅是支持基础科学，即人类系统如何实现卓越的性能水平，而且还支持科学与实践之间的独特合作，以确保新知识迅速转化为教育、工业和政府。最后，FASE首先扩大代表不足群体的参与，与佛罗里达国际大学建立协会，佛罗里达国际大学是一所为少数群体服务的官方大学，以发展支持少数群体科学研究和教育的能力。其次，FASE开发了通用的教育基础设施，以支持网络广播和其他可分发的媒体，以提供可供广泛传播的课程。简而言之，FASE将通过阐明专家如何实现非凡水平的表现，同时在教学层面上追求这一点，对国家需求做出重大贡献。
