This project was submitted in response to NSF 22-1 - Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide and was then directed to the Core Research (ECR) program announcement NSF 21-588. The ECR program of fundamental research in STEM education provides funding in critical research areas that are essential, broad and enduring. ECR supports projects that help synthesize, build and/or expand research foundations in the following focal areas: STEM learning, STEM learning environments, STEM workforce development, and broadening participation in STEM. The ECR program is distinguished by its emphasis on the accumulation of robust evidence to inform efforts to (a) understand, (b) build theory to explain, and (c) suggest interventions (and innovations) to address persistent challenges in STEM interest, education, learning, and participation.This international conference, to be held at the Monash University campus in Melbourne, will build the capacity of NSF-supported communities to benefit from the highly promising research methodology of quantitative ethnography (QE). This training workshop for young scholars, embedded in conference, supports the goals of the ECR program by developing a community of early career researchers to carefully use quantitative ethnography in the conduct of basic STEM education research. These scholars will be prepared to examine and empirically test new theory consistent with the central goals of the ECR program. The funding will support: a) attendance and training at an international conference on QE for doctoral and early career researchers to be held in the U.S., b) a technical immersion preconference workshop that several of participating researchers would lead for these young scholars, and c) a broader slate of symposium speakers who represent NSF supported disciplines that QE methods can benefit significantly.The intellectual merit of the conference arises both from the appeal or promise of QE across numerous fields. The proposed activities are organized around broadening the impact of QE's intellectual merit across new disciplines. The project maintains a consistent emphasis on furnishing next-generation researchers with conceptual and software tools and methodology to address important current and future questions across the spectrum of fields NSF supports in social sciences, basic STEM education research, and the learning sciences.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.

该项目是根据 NSF 22-1 - 提案和奖励政策和程序指南提交的，然后针对核心研究 (ECR) 计划公告 NSF 21-588。 ECR STEM 教育基础研究计划为重要、广泛和持久的关键研究领域提供资金。 ECR 支持有助于综合、建立和/或扩展以下重点领域研究基础的项目：STEM 学习、STEM 学习环境、STEM 劳动力发展以及扩大 STEM 的参与。 ECR 计划的特点是强调积累强有力的证据，为以下方面的努力提供信息：(a) 理解、(b) 建立理论来解释、(c) 建议干预措施（和创新），以解决 STEM 兴趣、教育方面持续存在的挑战。这次国际会议将在墨尔本莫纳什大学校园举行，旨在增强 NSF 支持的社区的能力，使其从极具前景的定量民族志 (QE) 研究方法中受益。这个针对年轻学者的培训研讨会嵌入在会议中，通过发展早期职业研究人员社区来支持 ECR 计划的目标，以在基础 STEM 教育研究中仔细使用定量民族志。这些学者将准备检验和实证检验与 ECR 计划的中心目标一致的新理论。这笔资金将支持：a）参加在美国举行的为博士和早期职业研究人员举办的量化宽松国际会议并接受培训，b）由几位参与研究人员为这些年轻学者主持的技术浸入式会前研讨会，以及c ）代表 NSF 支持的学科的更广泛的研讨会发言人名单可以让 QE 方法显着受益。这次会议的学术价值来自于 QE 在众多领域的吸引力或承诺。拟议的活动是围绕扩大量化宽松知识价值在新学科中的影响而组织的。该项目一贯强调为下一代研究人员提供概念和软件工具和方法，以解决 NSF 在社会科学、基础 STEM 教育研究和学习科学等领域支持的当前和未来的重要问题。该奖项反映了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。
