This grant, offered by the PRIME program, is for the purpose of advancing the field of evaluation. It seeks to support research focused on innovative methodologies for assessing the impacts and utility of STEM education projects and programs. The initiative aims to build upon and expand the theoretical underpinnings of STEM education and workforce development evaluations, including adapting successful approaches from other disciplines. Furthermore, a key objective is to enhance the overall capacity and infrastructure of the evaluation field. The program invites two distinct types of proposals: Exploratory Projects, designed for proof-of-concept and feasibility studies, and more comprehensive Full-Scale Projects, enabling broader research endeavors.
