ABSTRACTCNS 0634338 - PI Lecia Barker, Univ. of Colorado - BoulderCNS 0634278 - PI Tracy Camp, Colorado School of MinesCNS 0634502 - PI Alice Agogino, Univ. of California - BerkeleyTITLE: Collaborative Research: BPC-DP: Practices Aggregation, Infrastructure, and Retrieval Service for Broadening Participation in Computing (PAIRS)This collaborative project builds a digital repository of educational resources and practices shown to be effective in increasing the participation of underrepresented groups in information technology. Three collaborating institutions, the University of Colorado - Boulder, the Colorado School of Mines, and the University of California - Berkeley are developing Practices Aggregation, Infrastructure, and Retrieval Service for Broadening Participation in Computing (PAIRS) resource. The project includes technical development of the resource engine as well as data organization, a rating system, and a review process. Central to the effort is the engagement of a user community to test the usability of the PAIRS resource as well as to pilot effective uses of the resource. PAIRS is to be made available to educators and others through a variety of dissemination methods and outreach programs.The intellectual merit of this project lies in its potential to support both the research community conducting research on increasing the participation of underrepresented groups in computing as well as to provide essential evidence to those developing intervention implementations for broadening participation. The research and review in developing the best practice materials in the resource also provide a central source of effective strategies as well as a credible, research based body of information. The project team has excellent expertise in all aspects of this project and should develop a resource for which there is a great need within the computing community into which it will be integrated.The broader impacts of the project lie with the potential to impact many projects aimed at broadening participation and thus fundamentally play a role in increasing participation in computing. While many effective practices for increasing participation in computing exist and are available, underrepresentation persists and continues to be a major challenge to developing the diverse computing workforce needed to meet our national needs for the future. PAID develops a set of quality materials and provides access and visibility to them, thus greatly increasing the opportunities for others to choose appropriate sound resources to address broadening participation in computing.

摘要 0634338 - PI Lecia Barker，大学。科罗拉多州 - 博尔德CNS 0634278 - PI Tracy Camp，科罗拉多矿业学院CNS 0634502 - PI Alice Agogino，大学。加州大学伯克利分校标题：合作研究：BPC-DP：扩大计算参与的实践聚合、基础设施和检索服务 (PAIRS) 该合作项目建立了一个教育资源和实践的数字存储库，经证明可有效提高代表性不足的人的参与度信息技术领域的团体。科罗拉多大学博尔德分校、科罗拉多矿业学院和加州大学伯克利分校这三个合作机构正在开发用于扩大计算参与的实践聚合、基础设施和检索服务 (PAIRS) 资源。 该项目包括资源引擎的技术开发以及数据组织、评级系统和审查流程。这项工作的核心是让用户社区参与测试 PAIRS 资源的可用性以及试点资源的有效使用。 PAIRS 将通过各种传播方法和外展计划向教育工作者和其他人提供。该项目的智力价值在于它有潜力支持研究界开展关于增加代表性不足群体在计算机领域的参与的研究以及为那些制定干预措施实施以扩大参与的人提供必要的证据。在开发资源中的最佳实践材料时进行的研究和审查也提供了有效策略的中心来源以及基于研究的可靠信息体。项目团队在该项目的各个方面都拥有出色的专业知识，并且应该开发一种资源，该资源将被集成到计算社区中，该资源非常需要。该项目更广泛的影响在于有可能影响许多目标项目从而从根本上发挥提高计算参与度的作用。尽管存在许多提高计算参与度的有效做法，但代表性不足的情况仍然存在，并且仍然是发展满足国家未来需求所需的多元化计算劳动力的主要挑战。 PAID 开发了一套优质材料，并提供对它们的访问和可见性，从而大大增加了其他人选择适当的合理资源来解决扩大计算参与问题的机会。
