The Center for Integrative Research in Computing and Learning Sciences (CIRCLS) is a community-based hub for NSF-funded researchers who explore and investigate technologies that will be available to learners in 5-10 years. Advancing equity is a core goal in this research: emerging technologies create a potential for dynamic supports that meet learners’ varying personal-, community-, and context-centered needs. CIRCLS supports the Research on Emerging Technologies for Teaching and Learning (RETTL) program area for NSF.

CIRCLS Notes
    • In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, CIRCLS would like to acknowledge our continued commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in research on emerging technologies for teaching and learning. Our CIRCLS’21 convening revealed that in order to truly broaden the diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts within our research projects, we must move from “broadening” to “empowering” our project participants and partners. Our two CIRCLS’21 keynotes, Dr. Nicki Washington and Dr. S. Craig Watkins, provided powerful talks about where we are now as a field, and what we need to accomplish in order to reach this goal. We encourage our community members to revisit these keynotes this week, and reflect on the important messages that align closely with Dr. King’s mission and dream for the future.
