  1. Introduction to theBroader Impact Wizard

  2. Outline • Intro to COSEE NOW and background on why a Broader Impact Wizard • Broader Impacts Wizard walk through • Feedback and comments • Questions

  3. COSEE NOWOcean Science Interdisciplinary Team Senior Research Engineer and Educator Education and Public Outreach Specialist with background in biological oceanography Microbiologist/scientist working on science content and curriculum design

  4. COSEE NOWOcean Science Interdisciplinary Team Data visualization and technology specialist with a background in physical oceanography Science translator with a degree in fisheries and education Web developer and graphic artist working on a variety of research projects in the Coastal Ocean Observation Laboratory

  5. Vision: Criterion II Broader Impacts & Ocean Science Research • Help scientists find their work more rewarding • a broader audience is interested & participating in research • sense of contribution to society • Funding opportunities are improved • Recognized for service in the tenure and promotion process

  6. Background COSEE’s recommendations for success: • 1) Core objective (who and why) • 2) Connection with an “educational player/partner” • 3) Statement of uniqueness – relate to educational literature • 4) Evaluation plan • 5) Budget for your proposed work.

  7. Professional Development for Scientists

  8. Model for Translating Your Science Deconstruct Your Science Through Concept Mapping Deconstruct Your Science Though Storytelling Understand How people learn Build Knowledge in your audience Broaden The reach of your science

  28. Scientists input/data Helpful info on audience • Activity notes Objectives Drafted in Wizard

  29. Evaluation Plan Reminder about NSF criterion II Literature review

  30. Other Resources Pre-Award Materials • EPO Guide • NSF’s Representative Activities • References • Evaluation Manuals Additional Guidance on Partnerships Post Award Materials • Case studies • Next Steps • Additional funding for E&O activities • Journals to publish the results of your work Stronger connection to learning sciences and effective practices http://coseenow.net/scientist-resources

  31. Questions What are your recommendations for additions and next steps? How can we promote/market the use of the BI Wizard to further test its utility? Can you recommend funding streams to continue the development and testing of the Wizard? Does the BI Wizard capture your important criteria for success?
