NSF Program Solicitation National Science Foundation Program Solicitation (NSF 00-44): NATIONAL SCIENCE, MATHEMATICS, ENGINEERING, AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION DIGITAL LIBRARY (NSDL) Over the last four to five years, NSF has investigated the development of a NSDL Numerous NSF and NRC reports recommend the development of a system

Vision of NSDL ... “… a network of learning environments and resources for Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology education, will ultimately meet the needs of students and teachers at all levels—K-12, undergraduate, graduate, and lifelong learning—in both individual and collaborative settings.”

Three Components Connected Through the Internet www.needs.org Delivery Classrooms Instructional Labs Small Study Groups Residences Libraries Anywhere Development Courseware Studios Instructional Labs Faculty Offices & Residences Libraries Anywhere Three Components Connected Through the Internet We are building upon our experience with NEEDS as the foundation for the SMETE Information Portal, coupled with on-going research.

The Premier Award for Excellence in Engineering Education Courseware A national competition to identify and reward the authors of high-quality, non-commercial courseware designed to enhance engineering education The Premier Award is about the entire experience of using the courseware by learners, not just the courseware itself A dissemination system to distribute the Premier Courseware (via CD’s and presentation at engineering education conferences)

Prototype Project Goals Expand partnerships Math Forum at Swarthmore College University of California Nexus K–12 project Collaborate with partners to develop a prototype SMETE Digital Library test interoperability of federated searches and shared services with partners expand requirements analysis to include K–12 develop criteria and standards to assess the impact of learning objects across disciplines implement community feedback systems and evaluate services

Building a SMETE Information Portal Searching for learning resources Cataloging (adding) learning resources Standards, IEEE and IMS Evaluating the quality of learning resources “User” reviews “Expert” reviews Forming a community of users in SMETE

www.smete.org SMETE Digital Library Prototype Under Development based on NEEDS Infrastructure User Comments (user-based reviews) Adopted IEEE/IMS Metadata Expanded Collections Expanding into Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics Working with Partners Eisenhower National Clearinghouse Math Forum at Swarthmore College Math Metadata Task Force Total Collection Engineering 58% Chemistry 21% Physics 14% Math 5% Other 2%

Example Record: www.smete.org

Development of subject thesaurus for range of mathematics resources www.mathmetadata.org Development of Best Practices of using metadata for the Mathematics community Development of subject thesaurus for range of mathematics resources

SMETE Information Portal Needs Assessment Purpose: To understand the math and science communities of educators and examine their needs in order to design services and structures to support users from multiple communities. Research Questions: What services, features & programs are integral to success? What do users expect with regards to quality of the holdings? Who makes up the SMETE digital library community? American Association of Physics Teachers, American Mathematical Society, American Association for the Advancement of Science, members of the NSF Chemistry Consortia and the NSF Engineering Education Coalitions

Translating Findings into Services & Features Quality System to rapidly identify the quality of holding Place to comment about a learning object or regarding something of interest to the community Reviewers should include experts in pedagogy and content

Translating Findings into Services & Features Community Embedded structures for developing and maintaining communication links Developing community should be on par with building content Build on discipline based communities to establish connection to a broader community Content Useful content and community interaction will ensure user participation as authors, reviewers, adapters/adopters, and consumers
