National STEM Education Distributed Learning
This program aims to establish a national network of learning environments and resources for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education at all levels. The program has four tracks:

  • Pathways projects are expected to provide stewardship for the content and services needed by major communities of learners
  • Pathways II projects are expected to move beyond the major stewardship goals and use Stage II support to ensure the expansion and stability of an original Pathways effort
  • Services projects are expected to develop services that support users and resource collection providers by enhancing the impact, efficiency, and value of the NSDL network
  • Targeted Research will focus on investigating the educational impact of networked digital resources.
