AI Contract Overview

The Collaboratory to Advance Mathematics Education and Learning (CAMEL) for K-12 initiative, funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation in partnership with philanthropic organizations like the Walton Family Foundation, seeks to enhance mathematics education through interdisciplinary collaboration. It integrates expertise from neuroscience, cognitive and social sciences, computer science, data science, AI, engineering, and education research alongside hands-on educational practice. The initiative unfolds in two phases: Phase I involves soliciting proposals to create research networks combining learning science researchers, education practitioners, and data scientists to develop or enhance high-value datasets that support improvements in math learning. Phase II, exclusive to Phase I awardees, focuses on establishing a socio-technological collaboratory designed to build community and sustain capacity for ongoing collaborative work in advancing K-12 math education. Aligned with the NSF's priorities of fostering cutting-edge discovery, innovation, and broadening participation in STEM, proposals are expected to adhere to rigorous standards of scientific integrity and Gold Standard Science principles appropriate to their research field. CAMEL emphasizes generating actionable knowledge through data-driven approaches and interdisciplinary partnerships, aiming to leverage novel data and technologies to transform mathematics education outcomes on a broad scale. The solicitation encourages applicants to integrate NSF's priorities and pursue innovative, high-impact research that addresses foundational challenges in math learning and the development of collaborative infrastructure to support sustained educational advancements.

Full Description

The Collaboratory to Advance Mathematics Education and Learning (CAMEL) for K-12 initiative aims to advance mathematics learning and education through purposeful collaboration that draws on the interdisciplinary Science of Learning (including neuroscience; cognitive, developmental, and social sciences; computer science; machine learning; engineering; and education research), deep experiences in education practice and teaching, and innovations in the use of data science, AI and technology. Through an agreement with philanthropic partners, including the Walton Family Foundation (WFF), CAMEL consists of two phases. Phase I invites proposals for the creation of new research networks to support the generation of high value datasets that aim to advance math learning and education. These research networks must include researchers who study the basic science of learning, education practitioners, and data scientists. The high value dataset may come from either generating a new dataset or by increasing the value of an existing dataset. Phase II, open only to awardees of Phase I, establishes a “collaboratory,” which is a socio-technological platform that prioritizes community-building and capacity-building to sustain collaborative efforts to advance math learning and education in K-12.
Expanding Participation in STEM, NSF Priorities and Gold Standard Science:
NSF prioritizes cutting-edge discovery science and engineering research, advancing technology and innovation, and creating opportunities for all Americans. NSF has established priorities set forth by Congress, the administration and the NSF director to promoteNSF's mission. Proposers should review the list ofNSF prioritiesand are encouraged to align their proposals with them, where appropriate. NSF also expects the highest standards of scientific rigor, integrity and adherence to appropriate tenets ofGold Standard Sciencein proposals, as appropriate for the field of science and research modality.
