Community for Advancing Discovery Research in Education (CADRE)

该项目来自于促进教育发现研究社区（CADRE），将为发现研究K-12 （DRK-12）项目提供帮助，在全国范围内传播DRK-12项目的研发成果。该项目将加强能力，推进研究，扩大DRK-12项目和在评估、学习和教学领域工作的研究人员的影响。通过这一努力，CADRE将通过响应DRK-12获奖者之间以及获奖者与教育系统之间对沟通、协作和创新的持续需求，推进DRK-12项目在pre -12正规STEM教育中的目标。DRK-12项目旨在通过研究和开发创新资源、模型和工具，显著提高pre -12学生和教师对科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）的学习和教学。DRK-12计划中的项目建立在STEM教育的基础研究和先前的研究和开发工作的基础上，为拟议的项目提供了理论和实证依据。CADRE的目标是加强能力，推进研究，扩大300多个活跃的DRK-12项目和相关研究人员的影响力，旨在为改善pre -12 STEM教育做出贡献。在该项目期间，CADRE将继续在三个主要领域开展工作：(1)支持DRK-12社区；(2)联系获奖者以支持知识生成；(3)与更大的教育研究、政策和实践社区建立联系。CADRE旨在将不同的受众聚集在一起（虚拟和面对面），为DRK-12项目的工作做出贡献并从中受益，从而进一步提高STEM学科中循证教育的参与度。CADRE将努力确保DRK-12项目所产生的知识和产品能够广泛地为不同的利益攸关方群体所利用。CADRE将在项目内外向更广泛的教育从业者、研究和政策制定团体传播研究成果、模型、资源和技术。此外，CADRE研究员计划将支持下一代学者，提高不同研究人员群体参与STEM学科教育的能力，并为改善STEM学科教育做出贡献。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This project from the Community for Advancing Discovery Research in Education (CADRE) will provide assistance to Discovery Research K-12 (DRK-12) projects in national dissemination of the R&D contributions of the DRK-12 program. This project will strengthen the capacity, advance the research, and amplify the impact of DRK-12 projects and researchers working in the assessment, learning, and teaching strands. Through this effort, CADRE will advance the goals of the DRK-12 program in preK-12 formal STEM education by responding to the continuing need for communication, collaboration, and innovations among DRK-12 awardees and between awardees and the education system. The DRK-12 program seeks to significantly enhance the learning and teaching of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) by preK-12 students and teachers through research and development of innovative resources, models and tools. Projects in the DRK-12 program build on fundamental research in STEM education and prior research and development efforts that provide theoretical and empirical justification for proposed projects.CADRE's goals to strengthen the capacity, advance the research, and amplify the influence of over 300 active DRK-12 projects and associated researchers are designed to contribute to improvements in preK-12 STEM education. During this project, CADRE will continue its work in three main areas: (1) supporting the DRK-12 community, (2) connecting awardees in support of knowledge generation, and (3) connecting to the larger community of education research, policy, and practice. CADRE seeks to bring together (virtually and in-person) diverse audiences to contribute to and benefit from the work of DRK-12 projects, thereby further increasing engagement in evidence-based education in the STEM disciplines. CADRE will work to ensure that the knowledge and products produced by and with DRK-12 projects are broadly accessible to a varied group of stakeholders. CADRE will disseminate the research, models, resources, and technologies--both within the program and outside--to the broader education practitioner, research, and policymaking communities. In addition, the CADRE Fellows program will support next generation of scholars and increase the capacity of a diverse group of researchers to participate in and contribute to improving education in the STEM disciplines.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.
