NSF is announcing an opportunity for INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH in Learning
and Intelligent Systems (Announcement NSF 97-18). Researchers in
intelligent information systems are encouraged to join interdisciplinary
teams to respond to this opportunity.

The description below and other pertinent information can be found at the
following URL:
http://www.ehr.nsf.gov/lis/home.htm

The LIS initiative seeks to stimulate interdisciplinary research that will
unify experimentally and theoretically derived concepts related to learning
and intelligent systems, and that will promote the use and development of
information technologies in learning across a wide variety of fields. The
long-range goal of this initiative is very broad and has the potential to
make significant contributions toward innovative applications. To pursue
this goal in a realistic and sustainable fashion, the initiative focuses on
fundamental scientific and technological research undertaken in the
rigorous and disciplined manner characteristic of NSF-supported endeavors.
The initiative ultimately should have a major impact on enhancing and
supporting human intellectual and creative potential. Consequently,
development of new scientific knowledge on learning and intelligent
systems and its creative application to education and to learning
technologies are an integral part of this solicitation.

Deadline information: *REQUIRED* PRE-PROPOSALS DUE FEB. 7, 1997
