There is a need to develop a diverse community of STEM education researchers from many different institutions. This workshop will engage faculty from Minority-Serving Institutions who are interested in grant-funding for their STEM education research and are eligible for the CAREER program. The sessions will focus on developing a research agenda, proposal preparation, and connecting with other early career scholars in STEM education. Mentors and organizers will include CAREER awardees from the Directorate for STEM Education and researchers at Minority-Serving Institutions. To support the professional development of the early-career faculty, the workshop will have two major components (1) in-person meeting and (2) follow-up work for participants to develop proposals and their research agendas. The sessions will also explore the logistics of proposal development, and the connections between research and education. A critical component of support for early career faculty is helping them form networks for research, teaching, and professional support. Participants will have the opportunity to connect with each other as a community of practice. Mentors will be identified to support the early career STEM education researchers in developing their research concepts. This award is funded by the EDU Core Research (ECR) Program, Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Directorate for STEM Education (IUSE: EDU), the Discovery Research PreK-12 (DRK-12) Program, and the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP). The focus of these programs includes innovation in STEM education, STEM learning and learning environments, broadening participation in STEM and STEM workforce development.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.

有必要开发许多来自许多不同机构的STEM教育研究人员社区。该研讨会将吸引来自少数族裔服务机构的教师，这些机构有兴趣为他们的STEM教育研究提供赠款，并且有资格参加职业计划。这些会议将着重于制定研究议程，提案准备以及与STEM教育领域的其他早期职业学者建立联系。导师和组织者将包括STEM教育局和少数派服务机构研究人员的职业获奖者。为了支持早期职业教师的专业发展，研讨会将有两个主要组成部分（1）面对面会议和（2）参与者制定建议及其研究议程的后续工作。会议还将探讨提案开发的后勤工作以及研究与教育之间的联系。支持早期职业教师支持的一个关键组成部分是帮助他们建立网络以进行研究，教学和专业支持。参与者将有机会作为实践社区相互联系。将确定导师以支持早期的职业STEM教育研究人员发展其研究概念。该奖项由EDU Core Research（ECR）计划资助，改善本科STEM教育：STEM教育局（IUSE：EDU），Discovery Research Prek-12（DRK-12）计划（DRK-12）计划和路易斯·斯托克斯（Louis Stokes）参加少数族裔参与的联盟（LSAMP）。这些计划的重点包括在STEM教育，STEM学习和学习环境中的创新，扩大了STEM和STEM劳动力发展的参与。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛影响的评估评估标准来通过评估来获得支持的。
