摘要
The goal of this mini-workshop is to increase the participants' knowledge of current opportunities at the National Science Foundation (NSF) to support excellence in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. In particular, the discussion focuses on new and current opportunities in the Division of Undergraduate Education as well as highlight examples of project activities that support these opportunities. The mini-workshop uses a highly interactive format, using team-based games and discussion, to engage the participants and to foster the sharing of ideas, to clarify misconceptions, and to potentially initiate new ideas in engineering education innovations and research. This mini-workshop closely encourages the sharing of ideas and interaction amongst peers, and also informs participants about current NSF funding opportunities in STEM education.
