Funded with her review only. $100-$300K activities that will flip over once the requirement comes out. Jan will give feedback on sketches of ideas. With the required prior results, etc. it is a very short proposal. But it has to be something that Jan wants to do. Rick suggests floating an idea and then going from there. How much is it helping PIs with BPC on existing proposals, and how much to do other things. She's looking for things that can be "plugged in" to other projects. Capacity building institutes, training for PIs was not something NSF wanted to do. Need to get the first grant in place in order to get a supplement.</div><div><br></div><div>Sarah Dunton will plan a meeting to discuss with a shared document ideas for a collaborative project. </div><div><br></div><div>Videos coming together. <a href="http://stemforall2018.videohall.com/">http://stemforall2018.videohall.com/</a></div><div><br></div><div>SC standards are out for public review.
