Born out of a need recognized by the Advanced Technological Education (ATE) program community for a centralized resource portal, ATE Central initially grew out of a collaboration between a group of ATE centers and the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Internet Scout Research Group. ATE Central provides a browseable and searchable portal and a suite of tools and services that support grantee work, along with a digital archive that preserves and sustains NSF's valuable investment in ATE. ATE Central will continue to support the successful efforts already under way, including the archiving service, resource collection, and PI meeting app, but will also respond with new and innovative solutions to meet evolving ATE community needs. ATE Central will support community-responsive tools, services, and solutions. Community-building technology will help bring grantees together with a chat service and monthly online "office hours" to help support collaboration and communication amongst grantees. Annual Spotlight Focus workshops and webinars will provide expertise from within and beyond ATE on topics indicated by grantees as critical to their work. The new Curriculum Dissemination Service will develop and deploy documentation and mechanisms to help ATE projects and centers ensure the content they develop is Learning Management System (LMS)-friendly, and to provide access to those ATE-authored materials and curriculum to faculty within their local LMS. These and a host of other tools and services will create neoteric approaches to supporting grantee work and take advantage of diverse pathways for disseminating the deliverables and results of the community. ATE Central will continue to broaden the impact of the work of ATE grantees by showcasing data and deliverables, and disseminating metadata about the projects and centers and the resources they develop and collect. The collective work of the ATE program and ATE Central impacts a diverse set of stakeholders including students, faculty, industry partners and evaluators. By utilizing a variety of pathways, from conferences to social media to webinars, and with a deep commitment to Universal Design, the project will ensure access to all stakeholders, including those with disabilities.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

诞生于先进技术教育（ATE）计划社区对集中资源门户的需求，ATE Central最初是由一组ATE中心和威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的互联网童子军研究小组之间的合作发展而来的。ATE Central提供了一个可浏览和可搜索的门户网站以及一套支持受资助者工作的工具和服务，沿着一个数字档案，以保存和维持NSF在ATE方面的宝贵投资。 ATE Central将继续支持已经取得成功的工作，包括存档服务、资源收集和PI会议应用程序，但也将推出新的创新解决方案，以满足ATE社区不断变化的需求。ATE Central将支持社区响应工具、服务和解决方案。社区建设技术将通过聊天服务和每月在线“办公时间”帮助支持受赠者之间的协作和沟通，帮助将受赠者聚集在一起。年度聚焦研讨会和网络研讨会将提供来自ATE内外的专业知识，主题由受赠人指出，对他们的工作至关重要。新的课程传播服务将开发和部署文档和机制，以帮助ATE项目和中心确保他们开发的内容是学习管理系统（LMS）友好的，并提供访问这些ATE编写的材料和课程的教师在他们当地的LMS。这些工具和一系列其他工具和服务将创造新的方法来支持受赠方的工作，并利用各种途径来传播社区的可交付成果和成果。 ATE Central将继续通过展示数据和交付成果，并传播有关项目和中心以及他们开发和收集的资源的元数据，扩大ATE受资助者工作的影响。ATE计划和ATE Central的集体工作影响了包括学生，教师，行业合作伙伴和评估人员在内的各种利益相关者。通过利用各种途径，从会议到社交媒体再到网络研讨会，以及对通用设计的坚定承诺，该项目将确保所有利益相关者（包括残疾人）都能参与其中。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
