MSPnet.org: An Online Professional Learning Network

MSPnet.org是一个在线专业学习网络，为NSF的数学和科学合作伙伴计划服务。 它有助于在MSP项目内部和之间分享战略、挑战、资源和专业知识。 它也是与美国教育部MSP项目以及研究人员、从业人员和广大公众分享MSP项目经验教训的有效工具。 最后，它提供了一种将电子实践社区与其他有兴趣开发在线学习社区的人相互链接的创新模式。 MSP网络于2004年1月首次推出，有351名预先注册的成员，现在为7，200多名与当前或过去的MSP项目有联系的成员提供服务。 此外，它还成功地吸引了超过150万名独立访问者的庞大公众用户群，访问量超过740万页。 MSPnet的专业学习网络促进了跨项目对话，同时也为每个NSF MSP项目提供了自己的项目空间，包括互动工具，以加强合作伙伴之间的合作。 目前的努力包括新的特点和功能，以确保网络保持创新和最新的快速变化的技术。 对网站的更改是对不断变化的社区需求、Web和社区设计原则、导航易用性和可用性的响应。 在无缝地继续以前的活动的同时，创新的形式和互动活动（例如，通过互动式在线海报会议、互动式小组讨论和网络研讨会等方式，MSP网络正在支持更多的跨项目对话，加强用户快速查找与其需求相关的资源的机制，并提供MSP撰写的研究的综合和研究简报。 这些网站面向广泛的受众，并为与其他资源中心和社区共享资源创造了新的机制。

MSPnet.org is an online professional learning network created to serve NSF's Math and Science Partnership program. It facilitates the sharing of strategies, challenges, resources and expertise within and across MSP projects. It is also an effective vehicle for sharing the lessons learned by MSP projects with the U.S. Department of Education's MSP program, as well as with researchers, practitioners, and the public at large. Finally, it provides an innovative model of inter-linking e-communities of practice to others interested in developing online learning communities. MSPnet, which was first launched in January 2004 with 351 pre-registered members, now serves over 7,200 members who are affiliated with current or past MSP projects. In addition, it has successfully attracted a large public user-base of over 1.5 million unique visitors, who have accessed over 7.4 million page-views. MSPnet's professional learning network facilitates cross-project dialogue while also providing each NSF MSP project with its own project space, including interactive tools to enhance collaboration between partners. The current effort includes new features and functionalities to insure that the network stays innovative and up-to-date with rapidly changing technology. Changes to the site are responsive to evolving community needs, principles of Web and community design, navigational ease, and usability. While seamlessly continuing previous activities, innovative formats and interactive events (e.g., interactive online poster sessions, interactive panels and webinars), MSPnet is supporting additional cross-project dialogue, enhancing mechanisms for users to quickly find resources relevant to their needs, and providing synthesis and research briefs of MSP-authored research. These are accessible to a wide audience, and create new mechanisms for the sharing of resources with other resource centers and communities.
