This Prototype-Open Knowledge Network (OKN) project seeks to ensuring the growth of a community of learning and practice centered on the OKN and its use in solving critical, real-world problems. This Proto-OKN Education Gateway, EduGate, effort will provide a comprehensive education platform that would also facilitate close collaborations and convergence among current OKN projects, as well as future entrants to the network.As the entry-point to the Proto-OKN environment and community, EduGate can have widespread impact and can contribute directly to the overall success of the Proto-OKN effort. While some of the OKN projects will be deploying newer technologies, including distributed ledgers, blockchain technology, and large language models (LLMs), many of the underlying technologies and standards that power OKN are well-established and have been around for some time. There is a plethora of extant educational material, tutorials, reference texts, and technical papers describing the state of the art of these technologies. The Education Gateway will bring together and link these different materials via the OKN Curriculum Knowledge Graph (CurrKG), which will be purpose-built for educating learners of all backgrounds.The Education Gateway provides a unified, foundational learning platform, with customized pathways for users and other stakeholder from various sectors including government, industry, non-profit and other sectors. The project encompasses four major initiatives: (1) Community Development, Outreach, and Engagement (2) Industry Connection, Outreach, and Engagement (3) Education and Support activities among the cohort of OKN projects, and (4) Development of an OKN Curriculum Knowledge Graph (CurrKG) to assist with navigation through these materials.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.

这个原型开放知识网络（OKN）项目旨在确保以OKN为中心的学习和实践社区的发展及其在解决关键现实问题中的应用。这个Proto-OKN教育网关，EduGate，将提供一个全面的教育平台，也将促进当前OKN项目之间的密切合作和融合，以及未来的网络进入者。作为Proto-OKN环境和社区的入口点，EduGate可以产生广泛的影响，并直接为Proto-OKN工作的整体成功做出贡献。虽然OKN的一些项目将部署更新的技术，包括分布式账本、区块链技术和大型语言模型（LLM），但许多支持OKN的底层技术和标准都已经成熟，并且已经存在了一段时间。有大量现存的教育材料、教程、参考文本和技术论文描述了这些技术的最新发展状况。教育网关将通过OKN课程知识图谱（CurrKG）汇集和链接这些不同的材料，该图谱将专门为教育所有背景的学习者而构建。教育网关提供了一个统一的基础学习平台，为来自政府，工业，非营利和其他部门的用户和其他利益相关者提供定制的途径。该项目包括四项主要举措：（1）社区发展、外展和参与（2）行业联系、外展和参与（3）OKN项目队列中的教育和支持活动，（4）OKN课程知识图谱（CurrKG）的开发该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的学术价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
