This grant funds participant costs for the 2010 Software Engineering Educators' Symposium (SEES), where participants will learn about latest pedagogy in Software Engineering education and teaching techniques that appeal to diverse learners. Participants will be also attend the 2010 SIGSOFT Conference on Foundations of Software Engineering (FSE-18), where they will network with researchers in Software Engineering. Leaders in the field have volunteered their time to organize and run the event. The goal of this proposal is to help reverse the decline in the percentages of minority and women students choosing to study computer science at American colleges and universities. To achieve this goal, the grant will emphasize participation from colleges and universities with large minority and/or female student enrollments.

这笔赠款用于支付2010年软件工程教育者研讨会(SEE)的参与者费用，参与者将在研讨会上了解吸引不同学习者的软件工程教育和教学技术的最新教学方法。与会者还将参加2010年SIGSOFT软件工程基础会议(FSE-18)，在那里他们将与软件工程研究人员建立网络。该领域的领导人自愿抽出时间来组织和运营这次活动。这项提案的目标是帮助扭转少数族裔和女性学生选择在美国高校学习计算机科学的比例下降的趋势。为了实现这一目标，补助金将强调少数民族和/或女性学生入学率较高的学院和大学的参与。
