This grant, offered by the NSF’s Directorate for Engineering (ENG) and Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE), is for providing K-12 STEM teachers and community college faculty with active research experiences in engineering and computer science. Its primary purpose is to integrate cutting-edge technological innovation and research knowledge into classrooms, fostering long-term collaborative partnerships between educators and the NSF university research community. Participants translate their research into classroom activities. The program particularly encourages involvement from inner-city or high-needs schools, and promotes participation by underrepresented minorities, women, and individuals with disabilities. Support is available through supplements to ongoing ENG/CISE grants or via independent RET Site awards.
