Global Resources for Online Education (GROE) is a project funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) of the United States through the Computing Community Consortium.

GROE will influence computing research funding strategies, with the intention of accelerating improvement in education at all levels, with focus on the areas of computational models, reasoning, experimentation and implementation of mobile and ubiquitous pedagogical software.

Immediate topics of interest include:

  1. partnerships
  2. services and tools for learning based on improved understanding of human cognition
  3. improved human-computer interaction for individual productivity (e.g. incorporating human speech and gesture)
  4. networking, mobile and ubiquitous computing to support collaboration and create seamless social learning
  5. predictable and robust repositories of learning services and assessment tools
  6. enhanced software and hardware for personal computer literacy.

This process will also address such issues as:

  • the business case for education
  • strategies for distributed intelligence that can be coordinated into common learning activities
  • means for blending real and virtual worlds
  • open questions about how people learn.
