This grant, offered by the National Science Foundation, aims to establish a national network of distributed learning environments and resources for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education. This program supports initiatives across four main tracks: Pathways, Targeted Research, Services, and Pathways-II. Pathways projects focus on providing stewardship for content and services needed by major communities of learners. Targeted Research specifically investigates educational impact. Services projects develop support for users and resource providers, enhancing the NSDL network’s value and efficiency. Additionally, small grants are available to extend or enhance results from existing services, collections, or research, aiming to broaden the network’s user base or improve capabilities. The NSDL Resource Center provides crucial collaboration assistance, strategic partnerships, thematic research, and dissemination of findings, ensuring integrated development and impact across the program.

| Description: | This program aims to establish a national network of learning environments and resources for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education at all levels. The program has four tracks: Pathways projects are expected to provide stewardship for the content and services needed by major communities of learners. Targeted research will focus primarily on educational impact. Services projects are expected to develop services that support users and resource collection providers that enhance the impact, efficiency, and value of the NSDL network. Projects that explore specific topics that have immediate applicability to collections, services, and other aspects of the development of the NSDL network, which were submitted as Targeted Research under previous solicitations, should now be submitted as small grants to the Services section of the program. The existing NSDL Resource Center will provide collaboration assistance across all projects; undertake strategic partnership development on behalf of projects particularly with respect to non-academic entities; coordinate and, in some cases, perform thematic research and evaluation studies related to the program; synthesize findings across the portfolio; and disseminate findings of the accomplishments of the NSDL program. In FY2009, the program will accept proposals for large grants in 1) the Pathways track, 2) Pathways – II, 3) specific sub-tracks of Services, and 4) Targeted Research . In all tracks, the program will also accept proposals for small grants that extend or enhance results from existing services, collections, or targeted research activity so as to enlarge the user audience for the NSDL network or improve capabilities for the user. |
