In this Cyberlearning: Transforming Education EAGER project, the PI proposes a research program and set of events for educators, policy makers, students, designers, researchers, and makers to present, discuss, investigate, and learn about digital fabrication in education. Digital fabrication and "making" is a new chapter in the process of bringing powerful ideas and expressive media to schoolchildren. Yet the making that happens in classrooms is usually disconnected from what is known about promoting learning from such making. The PI is organizing a series of activities aimed at better understanding what is needed so that teachers will be better able to use making activities to promote learning and what research and development needs to be done to meet those needs. Activities include (1) a conference as a venue for stakeholders (including educators, students, researchers, and others) to present, discuss, and learn about digital fabrication, the culture around it, and what is known about learning from making; (2) a summer institute that would help teachers deepen their fabrication skills and learn more about learning and assessment; (3) a research summit to share findings, receive feedback, and develop collaborations; and (4) a fellow program to support teachers in activity planning and curriculum development. Throughout, the PI and team will be taking notes and convening discussions with an eye toward formulating a research agenda around promoting learning in classrooms in the context of design and fabrication activities.

在这个网络学习中：改革教育EAGER项目，PI提出了一个研究计划和一系列活动，供教育工作者，政策制定者，学生，设计师，研究人员和制造商展示，讨论，调查和学习教育中的数字制造。数字制造和“制作”是将强大的思想和表达媒体带给学童的过程中的新篇章。然而，在课堂上发生的制造通常与通过这种制造促进学习的已知知识脱节。PI正在组织一系列活动，旨在更好地了解需要什么，以便教师能够更好地利用制作活动来促进学习，以及需要做什么研究和开发来满足这些需求。活动包括（1）作为利益攸关方会议场所的会议（包括教育工作者、学生、研究人员和其他人）介绍、讨论和学习数字制造、围绕数字制造的文化以及从制造中学习的知识;（2）暑期研究所，帮助教师加深他们的制造技能，更多地了解学习和评估;（3）研究高峰会，分享研究成果，接受反馈，并发展合作;以及（4）伙伴计划，支持教师进行活动规划和课程开发。在整个过程中，PI和团队将记录并召开讨论，着眼于制定一个研究议程，围绕在设计和制造活动的背景下促进课堂学习。
