The Promoting Research and Innovation in Methodologies for Evaluation (PRIME) program seeks to support research on evaluation with special emphasis on: (1) exploring innovative approaches for determining the impacts and usefulness of STEM education projects and programs; (2) building on and expanding the theoretical foundations for evaluating STEM education and workforce development initiatives, including translating and adapting approaches from other fields; and (3) growing the capacity and infrastructure of the evaluation field.This project supports engineering faculty in their efforts to develop, evaluate, and improve delivery of their courses. The work is supported by the Course Social and Cognitive Engagement (CSCE) Framework. The expected outcomes of this project are: (1) an exploratory framework for how engineering faculty make choices and engage in evaluation processes; (2) a deeper understanding of processes that underlie cognitive and social engagement in engineering classrooms; and, (3) a valid and reliable CSCE instrument with modular subscales to measure student engagement of STEM education.

促进评估方法（PRIME）计划的研究和创新旨在支持评估研究，并特别强调：（1）探索确定STEM教育项目和计划的影响和实用性的创新方法； （2）建立和扩大理论基础，以评估STEM教育和劳动力发展计划，包括来自其他领域的翻译和适应方法； （3）增强评估领域的能力和基础设施。该项目支持工程学院的发展，评估和改善课程的交付。 这项工作得到了课程社会和认知参与（CSCE）框架的支持。 该项目的预期结果是：（1）工程教师如何做出选择和进行评估过程的探索框架； （2）对工程教室中认知和社会参与的过程的更深入的理解； （3）具有模块化量表的有效可靠的CSCE工具，可衡量学生参与STEM教育的仪器。
