Description
The
DRK-12 program invites proposals that address immediate challenges that are
facing preK-12 STEM education as well as those that anticipate radically
different structures and functions of preK-12 teaching and learning. The DRK-12
program has three major research and development strands: (1) Assessment; (2)
Learning; and (3) Teaching. The program recognizes the synergy among the three
strands and that there is some overlap and interdependence among them. However,
proposals should identify a clear focus of the proposed research efforts (i.e.,
assessment, learning, or teaching) consistent with the proposal’s main
objectives and research questions. The program supports five types of projects:
(1) Exploratory, (2) Design and Development, (3) Impact, (4) Implementation and
Improvement, and (5) Conferences and Syntheses. All five types of projects
apply to each of the three DRK-12 program strands.
