NSF Program : 1793 MSP-OTHER AWARDS
Abstract : 
The Center for Education of the National Academy of Sciences  proposes 
 to develop a program of workshops to help the MSP awardees and future
 applicants improve K-16 STEM programs. The content of the workshops builds
 on recent  NRC reports (e.g., How People Lear; Adding it Up; Transforming
 Undergraduate Education in Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology;
  Knowing What Students Know; Learning and Understanding), and participants
 will have opportunities to examine the research and implementation issues
 identified in these reports in depth and apply them to their project designs.

It
 is anticipated that two workshops each on two different topics (making
 a total of four workshops) will be offered annually for three years. MSP
 grantees would be guaranteed slots in the workshops.

The workshops
 will be jointly developed by the Center for Education and the National
 Science Resources Center.
