Dear Colleague Letter: Mid-scale Research Infrastructure Incubators and Conferences for STEM Education Research with a Focus on Education Equity
For this Dear Colleague Letter (DCL), NSF’s Directorate for STEM Education (EDU) is continuing collaboration with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Fund for Strategic Innovation (Schmidt Futures), and the Walton Family Foundation to offer Incubator Research Coordination Network (RCN) proposal opportunities that support the development of mid-scale research infrastructure efforts, especially those that enable research on the assets and needs of those historically underrepresented in STEM and that lead to greater education equity. Mid-Scale RI Incubators will develop the groundwork for future Mid-Scale RI proposals in STEM education research. Mid-Scale RI Incubator or Conference proposals are due by 5 PM in the local submitter’s time zone on March 15, 2024.
