NSF INCLUDES Coordination Hub

NSF INCLUDES是一项国家计划，专注于美国所有科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）人才在美国的发现和创新中的充分参与，通过积极寻求和有效地发展全国人才，包括那些服务不足的人群，NSF INCLUDES项目肯定了NSF对多样性，包容性和扩大STEM参与的承诺。NSF INCLUDES倡议正在促进致力于这一共同议程的不同团体之间的合作，目标是改善国家协调，共享知识，并最大限度地发挥影响力。NSF INCLUDES协调中心将通过建立和维持一个国家网络来领导国家协调，以扩大STEM的参与，包括但不限于由NSF INCLUDES倡议资助的活动。该中心将通过以下方式加强该网络：促进成员之间的交流;在相关努力之间牵线搭桥;提供专业学习以建立广泛的领导联盟;以及制定协调一致的国家一级战略。该中心还将通过制定共同的衡量方法和汇总数据分析，支持协调衡量网络成员实现目标的进展情况。通过学术期刊和会议、专业协会会员资格、行业出版物和大众媒体广泛分享网络的成果，该中心将提高NSF INCLUDES倡议的知名度和影响力。 此外，该中心将通过扩大参与、网络分析和组织变革等视角，根据对网络的研究，开发和分享见解。协调中心的活动旨在建立公共意愿，推进政策，并在整个网络中调动资金。协调中心本身是一个多机构联盟。SRI的合作伙伴是教育发展中心（EDC），Westat Inc.，少数民族优质教育网络、平等措施、格鲁吉亚理工学院星座计算平等中心和数字承诺全球。ORS Impact将作为中心的外部评估员。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得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来获得支持。

NSF INCLUDES is a national initiative focused on the full participation of all of America's science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) talent in discoveries and innovation in the U.S. By proactively seeking and effectively developing talent nationally, including among those in underserved populations, NSF INCLUDES projects affirm NSF's commitment to diversity, inclusion, and broadening participation in STEM. The NSF INCLUDES initiative is promoting collaboration among different groups committed to this common agenda with the goal of improving national coordination, sharing knowledge, and maximizing impact.The NSF INCLUDES Coordination Hub will lead national coordination by building and sustaining a national Network among efforts to broaden participation in STEM, including but not limited to those funded by the NSF INCLUDES initiative. The Hub will strengthen the Network by fostering exchange among members; brokering connections among related efforts; offering professional learning to develop a broad leadership coalition; and devising coordinated, national-level strategy. The Hub will also support coordinated measurement of progress towards Network members' goals by developing shared measurement approaches and aggregated data analyses. By sharing the Network's results broadly, via academic journals and conferences, professional associations memberships, trade publications, and the popular press, the Hub will raise the visibility and impact of the NSF INCLUDES initiative. In addition, the Hub will develop and share insights based on its study of the Network, through the lenses of broadening participation, network analysis, and organizational change. Together, the Coordination Hub's activities aim to build public will, advance policy, and mobilize funding across the Network.The Hub itself is a multi-institutional coalition. SRI's partners are Education Development Center (EDC), Westat Inc., Quality Education for Minorities (QEM) Network, Equal Measure, the Constellations Center for Equity in Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and Digital Promise Global. ORS Impact will serve as the Hub's external evaluator.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.
