• Experience on NSF review panels
2. NSF expects it

What does NSF want?
What does UF currently provide?
How to integrate with other NSF training programs
Look for “holes” in what UF provides (e.g., critical mass for GK-12)
Use evaluation data (CAPES)
Focus on synergies & common goals (e.g., ethics)Ponder: What
is innovative?
Meet face-to-face with colleagues
