[AISWorld] NSF Funding Opportunities: Research on Emerging Technologies for Teaching and Learning (RETTL)

[He, Wu]

Research on Emerging Technologies for Teaching and Learning (RETTL)

The purpose of the Research on Emerging Technologies for Teaching and Learning (RETTL) program is to fund exploratory and synergistic research in emerging technologies (to include, but not limited to, artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and immersive or augmenting technologies) for teaching and learning in the future. The program accepts proposals that focus on learning, teaching, or a combination of both. The scope of the program is broad, with special interest in diverse learner/educator populations, contexts, and content, including teaching and learning in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and in foundational areas that enable STEM (e.g., self-regulation, literacy, communication, collaboration, creativity, and socio-emotional skills). Research in this program should be informed by the convergence (synthesis) of multiple disciplines: e.g., learning sciences; discipline-based education research; computer and information science and engineering; design; and cognitive, behavioral, and social sciences. Within this broad scope, the program also encourages projects that investigate teaching and learning related to futuristic and highly technological work environments.

Proposals are due on January 25, 2021. Please see the requirements in the solicitation: https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2020/nsf20612/nsf20612.htm<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nsf.gov%2Fpubs%2F2020%2Fnsf20612%2Fnsf20612.htm&data=02%7C01%7Cwhe%40ODU.EDU%7C6225cb5a5c09404baab508d8663fde56%7C48bf86e811a24b8a8cb368d8be2227f3%7C0%7C0%7C637371771783311649&sdata=dtic3o5QeU4xhkZqthlR%2Fbn5IiijdmCJqsMzodH8TKY%3D&reserved=0>
