The American Indian Higher Education Consortium and institutional partners Sitting Bull College, Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College, United Tribes Technical College Turtle Mountain Community College, Cankdeska Cikana Community College, and North Dakota State University are partnering on this Cyber Team project that establishes the socio-technical foundations of a cyberinfrastructure (CI)-enabled collaboration that will both support current STEM research and education programs and provide the framework for aggressive research program development. The project involves faculty, students and IT staff at the six participating institutions collaborating on CI improvements, IT staff capacity-building, and distributed STEM programming focused on environmental science, eventually including engineering, digital manufacturing and other STEM disciplines.The project will provide professional development, support, mentoring and collaborative research opportunities for faculty and students at all North Dakota Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs). The project will enhance opportunities for economic development and enhance the design and delivery of health, education, and other services developed through CI-enabled basic and applied research. It will serve as a model for engaging TCUs nationally in the adoption of CI resources necessary to support implementation of a significantly broader range of research and education activities, particularly involving collaborations with the larger research community.The project’s collaborative capacity-building framework implements the connectivist learning model in which networked human and physical resources constitute a complex adaptive system that generates actionable knowledge (both technical and domain-specific) sustainably. The project tests the hypothesis that a connectivist framework can be transformative in building the research and education capacity of small resource challenged institutions and organizations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

美洲印第安人高等教育联盟和机构合作伙伴 Sitting Bull College、Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College、United Tribes Technical College Turtle Mountain Community College、Cankdeska Cikana Community College 和北达科他州立大学正在合作开展这个网络团队项目，该项目旨在建立社会-基于网络基础设施 (CI) 的协作的技术基础，该协作将支持当前的 STEM 研究和教育项目，并为积极的研究项目开发提供框架。该项目涉及教师、学生和 IT 人员。六家参与机构合作开展 CI 改进、IT 员工能力建设和以环境科学为重点的分布式 STEM 编程，最终包括工程、数字制造和其他 STEM 学科。该项目将提供专业发展、支持、指导和协作研究机会该项目将为所有北达科他州部落学院和大学 (TCU) 的教师和学生提供更多的经济发展机会，并通过 CI 支持的基础和应用研究来加强健康、教育和其他服务的设计和提供。充当榜样让全国范围内的 TCU 参与采用必要的 CI 资源，以支持实施更广泛的研究和教育活动，特别是与更大的研究界的合作。该项目的协作能力建设框架实施了联通主义学习模式，其中网络化的人类和物理资源构成了一个复杂的适应性系统，可以可持续地产生可操作的知识（包括技术知识和特定领域知识），即联通主义框架可以在建设小资源挑战机构和组织的研究和教育能力方面发挥变革作用。该奖项。反映通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，NSF 的法定使命被认为值得支持。
