Balance, start of year .................................................... ................... ................... ................... 01.99 925 947 Education and Human Resources (EHR) activities provide a comprehensive set of programs that further NSF’s goal of ensuring a diverse, competitive, and globally-engaged U.S. science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workforce, as well as scientifically literate citizens. At the pre-kindergarten through grade 12 (pre-K–12) levels, EHR catalyzes reform of STEM education through the development of public-private partnerships. Its pre-K–12 programs provide new instructional materials for students and teachers that incorporate the latest advances in teaching, learning, and educational technologies; growth in the knowledge base; and teacher education opportunities that support the full continuum of STEM teacher education from pre-service and inservice, through life-long learning. Undergraduate programs improve curricula, strengthen laboratory course offerings, enhance faculty, and lead reform efforts in STEM disciplines. Programs for advanced technological education strengthen education for students preparing to enter the high-technology workforce. Graduate level support is directed primarily to fellowships and traineeships to sustain the U.S. world leadership in science and technology. All EHR programming focuses on broadening participation of groups underrepresented in STEM fields including activities focused on the improvement of infrastructure and academic programs at minority-serving institutions. The Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) broadens participation of States and regions in science and engineering by helping institutions expand their research capacity and competitiveness. EHR supports education research that advances our knowledge of how people learn in the STEM disciplines; it also supports the development and effective implementation of learning technologies. Evaluation and communication activities ensure accountability by developing indicators that measure program impact and inform the education community of best practices and relevant information. EHR activities also include programs supported by H–1B non-immigrant visa fees. These programs provide undergraduate and graduate scholarships in STEM fields, support for private-public partnerships in K–12, and support for STEM education by providing research opportunities for STEM teachers and students in grades 7– 12. EHR’s funding also supports NSF’s active development of performance indicators.
