This project will explore the efficacy of using a competency framework as an organizing system for research security training for U.S. researchers. It will create an online module for research security training. This activity will focus on the importance of principled international collaboration to the U.S. research enterprise and the ongoing threats posed to this enterprise by improper foreign government influence. This project directly addresses the need to strengthen the security of U.S. government-supported research and development, per the National Security Presidential Memorandum – 33 (NSPM-33) and the CHIPS plus Science Act of 2022 (P.L. 117-167). Dissemination and use of this training will better protect U.S. research interests from both foreign and domestic risks and threats. The training module will be Internet-based, scalable, flexible, and widely accessible to researchers and stakeholders in a variety of settings, including researchers with disabilities. The project will develop a research security competency framework as the design basis for the training module. Training will be customized for distinct stakeholder groups within the U.S. research ecosystem and use real-world case studies and hypothetical scenarios to progress learners through increasingly advanced levels of knowledge and skills. The development of the research security training module series is collaboratively funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Department of Energy (DOE), and the Department of Defense (DOD).This research security training module focused on the importance of principled international collaboration will be designed and developed in consultation with a Content Expert Group, which includes of experts in research security across government. The project will use the ADDIE Model to sequence design and development activities. Methods drawn from the Universal Design for Learning Guidelines, Mayer’s 12 Principles of Multimedia Instruction, and the revised Bloom’s Taxonomy will guide instructional and curriculum design activities. Following the initial design work and consultation, focus groups will be convened to acquire rapid and ongoing design and development input from research stakeholder groups. Focus groups will represent key stakeholder groups within the U.S. research ecosystem, such as principal investigators, visiting international faculty, and post-doctoral fellows. The project team will assess the effectiveness of the module by using the Kirkpatrick Model for course evaluation to test module iterations. Kirkpatrick Level 1 assessments will evaluate the reaction of learners to the module; Level 2 assessments will evaluate the extent to which learners acquired the intended research security knowledge and skills. Following end user testing, evaluation, and revisions to the design, the module will be made available for dissemination to research security stakeholders, including university-based researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, academic administrators, research security administrators, and researchers and staff in government agencies and national laboratories.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.

该项目将探讨使用能力框架作为美国研究人员研究安全培训的组织系统的有效性。 它将为研究安全培训创建一个在线模块。 这项活动将侧重于原则性国际合作对美国研究企业的重要性，以及外国政府不当影响对该企业构成的持续威胁。根据国家安全总统备忘录-33（NSPM-33）和2022年CHIPS加科学法案（PL），该项目直接解决了加强美国政府支持的研究和开发安全的需要。117-167）。 这种培训的传播和使用将更好地保护美国的研究利益免受国内外风险和威胁。该培训模块将基于互联网，可扩展，灵活，并广泛提供给各种环境中的研究人员和利益攸关方，包括残疾研究人员。该项目将制定一个研究安全能力框架，作为培训单元的设计基础。培训将针对美国研究生态系统中不同的利益相关者群体进行定制，并使用真实案例研究和假设场景，通过不断提高的知识和技能水平来帮助学习者取得进步。研究安全培训模块系列的开发由美国国家科学基金会（NSF），美国国立卫生研究院（NIH），能源部（DOE）和国防部（DOD）共同资助。该研究安全培训模块侧重于原则性国际合作的重要性，将与内容专家组协商设计和开发，其中包括政府各部门的研究安全专家。该项目将使用ADDIE模型来安排设计和开发活动的顺序。从通用设计学习指导方针，迈耶的12个原则的多媒体教学，并修订布卢姆的分类方法将指导教学和课程设计活动。在初步设计工作和协商之后，将召集焦点小组，以便从研究利益相关者团体获得快速和持续的设计和开发投入。焦点小组将代表美国研究生态系统中的关键利益相关者群体，如主要研究人员，访问国际教师和博士后研究员。项目小组将通过使用课程评价的柯克帕特里克模型来评估模块的有效性，以测试模块的迭代。柯克帕特里克1级评估将评估学习者对模块的反应; 2级评估将评估学习者获得预期研究安全知识和技能的程度。在最终用户测试、评估和修改设计之后，该模块将分发给研究安全利益相关者，包括大学研究人员、本科生和研究生、学术管理人员、研究安全管理人员、该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过评估使用的支持。基金会的学术价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
