Group Travel Grant for Faculty at Minority Institutions

该补助金为2010年软件工程教育工作者研讨会（SEES）的参与者提供资金，与会者将了解软件工程教育的最新教学法和吸引不同学习者的教学技术。 与会者还将参加2010年SIGSOFT软件工程基础会议（FSE-18），在那里他们将与软件工程研究人员建立联系。 该领域的领导人自愿抽出时间组织和举办这次活动。该提案的目标是帮助扭转少数民族和女性学生选择在美国学院和大学学习计算机科学的比例下降的趋势。为实现这一目标，赠款将强调少数族裔和/或女生人数较多的学院和大学的参与。

This grant funds participant costs for the 2010 Software Engineering Educators' Symposium (SEES), where participants will learn about latest pedagogy in Software Engineering education and teaching techniques that appeal to diverse learners. Participants will be also attend the 2010 SIGSOFT Conference on Foundations of Software Engineering (FSE-18), where they will network with researchers in Software Engineering. Leaders in the field have volunteered their time to organize and run the event. The goal of this proposal is to help reverse the decline in the percentages of minority and women students choosing to study computer science at American colleges and universities. To achieve this goal, the grant will emphasize participation from colleges and universities with large minority and/or female student enrollments.
