EAGER: Composing Pathways for Collaboration Between Computer Science Researchers and Practitioners (CompPath)

克利夫兰州立大学将与STEM卓越教学研究所（TIES）一起，为计算机科学（CS）教师设计和试点方法，让他们参与并为社区中的pre -12 CS学习机会做出贡献。这个为期两年的项目名为CompPath（为计算机科学研究人员和从业人员之间的合作谱写路径），将探索在前沿计算机科学研究和K-12之间建立有意义和真实的联系。它将强调通过包容和吸引女性、有色人种和其他未被充分代表的少数民族，以扩大参与的方式翻译研究成果。具体来说，该项目将在研究人员之间建立示范性合作，作为全国其他计算研究人员的榜样；收集CS研究人员可以利用的机会清单，以可持续和真实的方式将外展活动纳入其研究项目；设计并推出一个可搜索的信息交换中心基础设施，使CS研究人员和位于邻近地区的其他科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）相关团体能够轻松找到彼此；举办一系列“设计工作室”活动，重点关注计算机科学研究人员与“扩大参与计算资源”提供者之间的有意义的合作。在其传播过程中，该项目将利用STEM学习生态系统实践社区（SLECoP）的网络，该社区由美国68个社区组成，专注于动态的跨部门STEM参与。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Cleveland State University, together with the Teaching Institute for Excellence in STEM (TIES), will design and pilot ways for computer science (CS) faculty to engage with and contribute to preK-12 CS learning opportunities in their communities. The two-year project, called CompPath (for Composing Pathways for Collaboration Between Computer Science Researchers and Practitioners) will explore the creation of meaningful and authentic connections between cutting-edge computer science research and K-12. It will emphasize the translation of research products in a manner that broadens participation by being inclusive of, and appealing to, women, people of color, and other under-represented minorities. Specifically, the project will Create demonstrative collaborations between researchers that will serve as models to other computing researchers across the country; Collect an inventory of opportunities that a CS researcher can leverage to incorporate outreach activities in their research project in a sustainable and authentic manner; Design and launch a searchable clearinghouse infrastructure that will allow CS researchers and other Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)-related groups located in proximate regions to easily find each other; and Host a series of "design studio" events that are focused on meaningful collaborations between CS researchers and providers of Broadening Participation in Computing resources.In its dissemination, the project will leverage the network of the STEM Learning Ecosystems Community of Practice (SLECoP), an initiative comprising 68 communities across the US focused on dynamic, cross-sector STEM engagementThis 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.
