Mission and Goals

The primary mission of the proposed project is to establish NC-FEW as a hub for a networked improvement community (NIC) that will advance education research and educational programming grounded in the FEW-Nexus. 

In pursuit of this mission, we propose five explicit goals:

1. Synthesize current education research on educational programming grounded in the FEW-Nexus
2. Identify and promote best practices in education research on educational programming grounded in the FEW-Nexus
3. Foster collaboration among community members representing diverse disciplines, fields, expertise, and institutions
4. Enhance capacity for extramural funding in support of education research on educational programming grounded in the FEW-Nexus
5. Cultivate a community identity among NC-FEW participants
