CADRE Opens 2018 DRK-12 PI Meeting Registration and Call for Proposals

CADRE, the resource network for the NSF’s DRK-12 program, is pleased to invite a group of DRK-12 and STEM+C PIs to the 2018 DRK-12 PI Meeting on June 6-8 at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park hotel in Washington, D.C. The overarching goal of the 2018 PI meeting is to engage DRK-12 and STEM+C awardees in building and sharing new knowledge, best practices, and tools critical to increasing the impact and sustainability of our work over time.

OER Webinar Resources

On February 14, CADRE hosted a webinar on freely available, openly-licensed open education resources (OER) in K-12 STEM. Panelists and participants discussed the current demand for OER and opportunities for NSF-funded projects to contribute; key considerations, opportunities, and challenges for individuals, projects, and organizations developing OER (e.g., intellectual property and financial trade-offs); how OER products are identified, evaluated, and used by teachers, schools, and districts; and avenues for dissemination and uptake.
