Title of Collection: Survey of NSF
INCLUDES Principal Investigators and
Program Participants.
OMB Control Number: 3145—NEW.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to establish an information
collection.
Abstract: The primary objective of the
survey is to collect data on the
formation of partnerships between
Alliance grantees and collaborating
organizations for the National Science
Foundation (NSF) Inclusion Across the
Nation of Communities of Learners of
Underrepresented Discoverers in
Engineering and Science (INCLUDES)
initiative. These data will be used to
understand how these partnerships form
a network infrastructure for leveraging
innovative strategies and approaches to
eradicate the persistent lack of diversity
and underrepresentation in science,
technology, engineering, and
mathematics (STEM) fields. The goal of
NSF INCLUDES is to support pioneering
models, networks, partnerships, and
research that enable the U.S. STEM
workforce to thrive by ensuring all
groups are represented in percentages
comparable to their representation in
the U.S. population. NSF INCLUDES
Alliances leverage the collective efforts
of launch pilot grantees, which have
proposed and implemented diverse
change strategies at a small scale, to
catalyze NSF’s broadening participation
(BP) investments. Alliances build on the
activities of launch pilot grantees,
partners, collaborators, and networks to
propose and implement solutions to
address the barriers that result in
underrepresentation in the STEM
enterprise.
Data from the survey will provide
NSF with critical information about the
impact of networked, collaborative
approaches on broadening participation
in STEM. These data will also provide
an understanding of the specific ways in
which the change process of a
networked, collaborative approach
meets NSF’s goal of scaling innovative
solutions to this pervasive and complex
problem. Additionally, these data will
provide an understanding for how the
NSF INCLUDES approach can be used
by other federal agencies to address
similarly difficult problems. This survey
is one component of a research design
that includes extensive analysis of
secondary data; however, an
understanding of network formation and
interaction requires primary data
collection from network participants.
This type of data is not currently being
collected elsewhere and is critical to
developing a real-world understanding
of how organizations work together
within a federally funded collaborative.
