Strengthening the Competitiveness of Engineering and Computer Science Faculty

摘要NSF教育项目的开发、管理、评估和传播有时是困难的。挑战包括发展教师社区，使用更可靠的评估方法，以及鼓励更广泛的采用。该计划支持一系列半天的互动式网络研讨会，指导工程和计算机科学教师，通过展示项目设计、管理、评估和传播，帮助他们更好地了解如何在拨款申请中解决这些问题。参与者了解国家科学基金会的项目，讨论教育理论并进行模拟评审。开发的材料正在存档，并提供给教育界。

ABSTRACTDeveloping, managing, evaluating and disseminating NSF educational projects is sometimes difficult. Challenges include developing faculty communities, using more robust evaluation methods, and encouraging broader adoption. This project supports a series of half-day interactive web-based seminars directed to engineering and computer science faculty members to help them better understand how to address these issues in grant proposals by demonstrating project design, management, evaluation and dissemination. Participants learn about NSF programs, discuss educational theory and perform mock reviews. The developed materials are being archived and made available to the education community.
