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